Going really good for 70 km and then feel like I run out of steam. Well, I didn't train enough bike last 2 months before race, due to injury and other comitments.
What would you do differently?:

Don't make training mistakes 2 months before most important race of the season.

Hard run, fight all the way with myself and a wish to run faster. I think not enough training on the bike cost me few minutes on the run as well.

My first triathlon was at age 56. At first I was just the cameraman at my daughter's first triathlon, then I am doing the races that she has done.
