Comments:

felt fast on the bike but paid for it on the run, tried spinning more and form was way off, my calves were killing me when I got off. I guess I was pushing too much with my toes.
What would you do differently?:

Don't try gearing differently in a race when you haven't practiced enough on the road.

stick with what I train with and not change anything race day
