Was really slow on this TA, took my time putting on banadana, drinking gatorade, washing off feet. Got to figure out something faster for feet, also no banadana

1 in MTB rank
What would you do differently?:

Nothing for this race, but I think it would help to have a faster bike...however, I could push it a little more at the top of hills, I slow way down, pedal hard at top of hills, push some sprints

Comments:

This was a much better TA, except for the crazy lady who yelled dismount way to soon and made me slam on my brakes, then I had to run my bike even further.
What would you do differently?:

Not dismount until last possible moment,

1 in MTB rank, could have probably had a little less to drink, bordered on sloshing stomach...got a cramp but ran through it
What would you do differently?:

push it a little more on the first mile, really slow off bike
Post race
Warm down:

walked stuff back to car, did minor stretches

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Wasn't sure how to best pace myself, didn't want to tire myself out for the run...

Event comments:

I don't really have anything to compare it too since this was my first race!
