Comments:

Things went much better for me on the bike. I am really happy with it. Out of transition I had a girl come past me while i was getting my HR down a little bit. I didn't let her get too far in front of me. About 2 miles later another girl rides past me, and hooks onto the wheel of the first girl in front of me. They start talking and from where i'm at, it looks like they start working together pace lining it (race is not draft legal) and pulling away from me. It gave me extra motivation. I work hard and finally pass them about 10 miles in. Then they jump on my wheel....dang
What would you do differently?:

i haven't road much since before 4th of july.
