Comments:

Got crazy calf cramps about 1/3 the way into the bike course, seriously thought would have to pull over and stretch. I did get off the bike & try to stretch just a bit at the turn-around. Due to the cramps, I wasn't able to attack the course as planned; it was all I could do to just keep pedaling. The course wasn't as crowded as I had feared it might be. The wet roads & steady downpour were no problem since we'd trained in the rain.

Comments:

I was so soaked, that I actually changed socks for the run.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

We buried my dad the day before, so I was just happy to get myself out there and complete the course. It wasn't a strong performance, but I did it.
