Pre-race routine:

Oatmeal, banana & coffee. Went to pack bike in car and notice it was flat. Good thing I wasn't in a rush, change flat and off I went.


Event warmup:

Arrived at the race site at 6:00. Found a end rack that was close to the exit. It was too dark to set my things out at the transition. Went in the pool area to get body mark and to stay warm. As the start time (7am) get closer, I waited till the last minute to set out my stuff for transition. As I got back in the pool area, the line to start as very line. Race started @ 7, I didn't start till 8:20.

stretch. hydrate.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Really enjoyed the race. Loved the bike course. Setup always does a great job with their events. Great early season event that I'll probably do again next year.
