Sucking on the bike because I have not trained enough

Event comments:

This was good for the a first run race but sub par compared to others. Not really orgainzed as well as it could have been. Even though I did not have a stelar performance I think this gave me the boast I needed because I felt good in the run.

Congrats on the race, sorry to hear about the missing shoe.  Those hills can really take it out of you.
