Was a nice course, not too windy. I should probably have pushed it a little harder but this was a practice race so I wasn't too worried.

My hands and feet were still numb so I still had a hard time getting shoes on and off.

Comments:

Yes, I know I could have done this faster, but I spent the run talking with a guy who was doing his first triathlon and we discussed everything from the proper age to introduce Mel Brooks movies to kids to haircuts. I actually enjoyed the run more than the rest of the race :)
Post race
Warm down:

Drank chocolate milk.

Event comments:

I went into the race determined to take it easy and not get too keyed up as I only recently found out my health was ok and I could officially continue with training.
I really enjoyed the race and I think I may do it again someday. The course was pretty and much better marked than the last time I did this race. I enjoyed the atmosphere and the temperature was perfect.

Is that chain remark a rip on me????  I really enjoyed this race way more than I ever have before.  I felt my effort was the same as when doing the sprint.  Guess that means I'm really training more than I think I am!  Glad you felt good about it. Nice work!

Maybe a little :P  but I fell down before when my chain came off too. 

You did great at the race, by the way.
