Poor siting on the way back in. Too far right. Goggles fogging made finding exit hard.

Dumped water at both water stops. Didn't walk though wanted to around mile 2.

Post race
Warm down:

water, banana, Honey milk.
Cheered on Libby and Delia then headed home.

Stomach upset and didn't want to eat for a while at home.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

PS. woke up Sunday with a severe muscle spasm in left shoulder and neck. massage and kinesio tape plus muscle relaxants and ice. Probably due to aero position with little time spent in aero recently.

Event comments:

RD needs better website. Finding information is sketchy.
