Pre-race routine:

Up at 3 AM. Had my coffee and toast with PB & J. Got to the event early to pick up my packet, well organized pick up but didn't get a good spot on the racks.
Event warmup:

1/2 hour before start I did a 15-20 minute jog and 10 minute stretch.

Comments:

2 drink stations set up at seemingly random distances, threw me off a bit as far as how much of the run was left.
What would you do differently?:

I gassed out about 1/4 mile left, and had to slow down for about 1 min. If I were more aware of the course I could have pushed myself through that last bit.

Event comments:

Course map wasn't finalized until the day before the race. Course was not well marked. Lots of drink stations seemed to be set up at random distances on the course.

I think my biggest issue was not studying the course map more. Next time it will definitely be a bigger priority for me.

Course: Mostly flat, one hill near the end. Not as challenging as I thought it would be. The bike course was not well marked and the finalized course map was not available until the day before the race. Added a small amount of confusion at the turns. Unfortunately the volunteers were also little help.
