excellent bike. Had no idea I could be over 20 with that wind. I guess what is in your face on the way out is pushing you home.

windy head wind, helpful on the way home.

Warm down:

hydrate, eat.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

sprint training was lacking on run.

Event comments:

I missed defending my 3rd place from last year by 1:09. 3rd place finisher was 1:20 faster than me on the swim and 48 seconds faster on the run. I had no chance.
I was also exactly 30 seconds slower than last year. It was the run.
it was nice to have Playtri running this race today. They did a good job.
