Pre-race routine:

Nice to have a local race for a change and not have to get up before 4 am. I had a piece of toast with some honey and some apple juice.
Event warmup:

Ran back to the car to get some gum and then swam a quick 100 yards.

Comments:

Because I have a long way to go to be competitive in the bike leg I always have to push way harder than I'd like. This being a hilly and lengthy course only compounded that problem.
What would you do differently?:

I need to improve my bike drastically. Me and the drainer are going to become the best of friends this winter.

Very difficult course with very deep sand for about half of the run.

Not cook myself on the bike.
