Not thrilled with pace today. No excuses with weather perfect. Perhaps I should not do the elite wave bc. only was passed twice and really didn't see anyone else except on the way back in. No one to push me and no carrot to chace.

Good time, nothing to change

Comments:

I passed one of the two that got me on the bike and was passed by two young men that run cross country at their schools. Too bad you can't buy youth!
Good run but same as with the bike I was generally alone and I know I could do better if I was pushed.
What would you do differently?:

Go in the age group wave.
Post race
Warm down:

Met up with a friend I made last year. He took 1st in his age group and me 2nd so we hung around for the awards.
Beautiful day, must admit I am glad the studs stayed home as last year I was a little faster and took 4th AG. The overall winner, 43 from Chicago could stay home next year,jk, he did it in 1:02:13! Crazy fast!

Event comments:

Nice day, met some friends, had some fun after my worst 1/2 Iron ever last week.
