Swim was canceled so we ran a couple hundred yards along beach. Pretty hectic coming into transition running into oncoming bikes.

Bike

Comments:

Strong headwind on the way back in slowed me down some. Traffic was heavy both bikes and cars due to swim being canceled. The field didn't really spread out, so this was pretty irritating.
Transition 2
  • 00m 32s
Comments:

I passed transition timing mats, lost my shoe out of pedals trying to stop.
What would you do differently?:

get out of shoes better

Event comments:

This race sets up nicely for me due to the length of time for the run relative to the bike. I hope to keep coming back and eventually get to the #1 spot.
