Comments:

The course was fine, there were probably too many turns to really get going. The race officials were not great a telling people where to go. They directed the winner of the race in the wrong direction when coming out of the course.
What would you do differently?:

I took one turn much too tightly and hit the bottom of my pedal on the ground, I would work on those turns more.
Transition 2
  • 59m 2s
Comments:

I actually forgot to take my helmet off and started running with it out of transition. A race official took my helmet and put it with my bike.
What would you do differently?:

remember to take my helmet off.
