Absolutely brutal trying to get out of the water because the ramp was so slipper. I literally slide back down the ramp a few times trying to crawl out of water. This additional time is probably in my swim time since it's before hitting the mats.

Flatted just about 2 miles after turnaround. I didn't put a valve extender on my spare tube and I couldn't get the extender off my flat tube. Tried putting the 80mm stem in tire to see if I could get CO2 to catch and fill up. Didn't work. Just kept trying to get valve off and finally got it to budge.

I knew my race was done so after I finally got the flat changed I figured it was just a good training day.

Ahh, ok enough run but I just didn't push overly hard since I knew my race was done.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

A flat will do it every time. By my calculation flat cost me ~11 minutes. Surprised I still finished 3rd.
