This course was mismeasured. Supposed to be 33.
What would you do differently?:

Not much, I'd say go harder but I didn't have much chance in the wind. I need more wind training!

Rack and tie shoes faster! I can't use elastic laces.

What would you do differently?:

Maybe not push so hard on the bike? Legs really wouldn't turn over. Maybe push harder on the run? I had a stomach cramp so maybe I ran too much out of T2.
