Pre-race routine:

Coffee before I left. Time trial start line is < 1.5 miles from my house, so it was easy to register early and then go back home for potty, a little more coffee, say hello to the kids, etc.
Event warmup:

Began w/u riding to start line to register. One loop around the course, ~3.4 miles, then home to pick up sunglasses and toe warmers (a little brisk for me) and ride back to start line for my sendoff.

Comments:

Had to slow down at one corner on the last loop because there was a car coming. Road wasn't closed to traffic. Although I was the fastest female overall, there were only age group trophies awarded.
What would you do differently?:

Train harder. Always want to go faster.
Post race
Warm down:

EZ ride home. Then switched to running shoes and jogged back to race site for awards.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Very happy with my time.

Event comments:

Very small time trial...just within the bike club. Only about 15-20 entries, about 5 of them women.

For some odd reason, this form keeps deleting my lap & HR info in the HR section, so here it is:

My watch said 28:58, which would've put me at 21 mph, but I'll survive. Putting the extra 14 seconds onto lap 1, laps are as follows:
Lap 1)9:45 & avg HR 165; Lap 2)9:43 & avg HR 166; Lap 3)9:45 & avg HR 167. Max HR 175.

Nice job... I have always wanted to try a TT but never have. I really get a lot of energy from the other riders... I dont know how fast I would be by myself...
