Started out swimming side by side w/ eventual fastest swimmer (8:14), She dropped me and I hooked up with 2nd fastest swimmer- a girl I've known since I was 11 but haven't seen in years, she now swims at Northeren Iowa University. Drafted for a while, but we caught up to the slower half of the heat before us right after the turn bouy, she made it though them, but I wasnt so lucky in dodging

Slow. Legs were burnt up and thought I was going to have calf cramps. I just shuffle along. I never walked but I might as well have. Everyone that I passed on the swim and bike, passed me on the run. I was probably passed by (including men and women, short and long) 60 people. No joke.

What would you do differently?:

GO faster.

Post race

What limited your ability to perform faster:

My running skilss and chain coming off once.
