I thought I'd be speedier because the course change eliminated the rollers on 18 but I had some trouble passing on the trail and also got stopped by a volunteer for trucks turning off 18 just past Dorset.

I tried out a new strategy. I don't try to pace - just go out hard even if it means I have to walk a bit at the end. It worked - I got a tri run pr. Also I sprinted the last 1/4 ile to pass someone

Warm down:

Chatted with a few people. Decided not to stay for awards because I had to pick up my packet for the YWCA tri by 4pm and was afraid I wouldn't make it if I got lost or there were traffic problems
