I started getting a cramp in my side so I slowed down. I did try to draft I think it would be eaiser if i could see more tham 6 inches. Entry and exit were very rocky and hard on the feet

Great job Cliff!!  2mph improvement on the bike, and amost two minutes per mile on what sounds like a much more difficult run course than Jefferson.  Very impressive - you should be proud of yourself!

Thank you for the kind words I broke down the individual events swim 16/27 bike 18/27 run 20/27 I held back on the swim due to a cramp and the bike I am rather satisfied about but I continue to be very dissappointed in my running ability yes it was a much tougher run course than Jefferson but still!!! well I am planning on dropping 10 pounds over the next 4 weeks that should help and then Ill push my way to the Houston Half Marathon that has got to help me but ultimatley I need to hit the hills.
