Had a good tranisition. things seemed a little slow but there was a long runout from the water, and I took a bit of time to get the sand off my feet. Overall it was very competitive.

It was a straight and fast course. 4 u turns but the road was wide very easy turns to make.

I would push a little more to try and get and avg of 22 mph.

This was a PR on Avg speed for me.

My pace was very consistant. It took about 3/4 of a mile to get my heart rate down but i was not going to let up and let someone catch me.

This was a PR 5k for me.

What would you do differently?:

Push the pace a little more try to get under 7 min miles.
