Comments:

Good start. Got ahead of the pack and held on. Lost some momentum at the 1st buoy b/c I couldn't see the second and panicked because I didn't want to miss the next buoy.

What would you do differently?:

Nothing
Transition 1

Comments:

Couldn't "run" in transition so did a shuffle and apparently my competition ran b/c their transition was considerably better. blah. In and out with no stress. Passed a guy in the transition arch way.

nothing

Comments:

Really separated in the hills. got disoriented between miles 5 and 6. Lost some time in a moment of confusion. HR dropped and pace was gone.
What would you do differently?:

If you're ever in no mans land and don't think you're on the right path, it doesnt matter, keep going and you'll figure it out eventually.

Run

Comments:

A lot left at the end. HR fell and I did not push it. Got complacent with thinking there was only one guy in front of me and he was out of reach.
Post race
Warm down:

sprinted to transition to catch CC. She had already transitioned and I caught her on the back end.
