Swim was ok overall. It was congested at the first bouy and I had a difficult time getting around people, but despite all of that I was still faster than last year
What would you do differently?:

Maybe enter the water at the back of the pack

not struggle getting started on the bike

I felt really good on the bike course. 18mph average is really good for me.

Purchase an aero helmet and zip wheels

be faster

Comments:

The run felt slow to me and was much slower than last year. I had a side cramp for 90% of the run so I paced myself slower then picked it up at the very end.
What would you do differently?:

next time I will not eat a bunch for fruit right before the race and not drink too much water on the bike
Post race
Warm down:

eat food and socialize with fellow BT'ers

What limited your ability to perform faster:

side cramp and training focused on half iron man in the fall (long duration low intensity right now)
