Comments:

Good first race. Interested to see how the fitting helps out. Wind was crazy and I held back a little too much expecting to need the energy. Finished with some left in the tank. 30 seconds would have meant 6 places. Cycle racing is MUCH closer than Triathlon.
What would you do differently?:

Bust it out harder, leave nothing on the table. I did however ride by FAR the fastest average speed in a TT vs. what I put down in a Triathlon.
