Good swim. Kept a steady pace throughout. Wandered a little off course but not enough to make a difference.

Comments:

Great ride. Passed a lot of people and only a few passed me. Because of the large number of people in such a small race it was tough not to draft. Several times I made the decision to pass and pushed myself so I wasn't stuck behind them. It worked and felt great.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing.

Comments:

I felt like I was faster than my 8:45 pace, probably closer to 8:30. With about 1/5 mile to go I realized I needed to do about 3:30 to finish in less than an hour. Kicked into gear and finished at 59:59 according to my watch.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing.
Post race
Warm down:

Walk around.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Training. I have only been in the pool once a week for the last 3-4 weeks and only ran a few times due to a nagging hip pain.
