Ran with my Under Armor cold gear long sleeve shirt over my jersey. I drank h20 at mile 2.

I wanted to run 10min miles on a avg and I was much quicker than that.

Nothin

I didn't have the shoes on the bike, i had them sitting in transition. shoes went on good and grabbed the bike, out i went.

learn to put shoes on when on the bike.

Since the run was a little faster than expected I was just going to take it easy for the first mile or 2. A pack of ladies passed me all bunched up and drafting off eachother. I let them go but kept them in sight. About mile 4 I decided that enough was enough, went after them and passed them. right as I get passed them I get to the train tracks and low and behold there is a train. People were bunched up on both sides of the tracks just waiting. As the train went by I was in a good position so I clipped in and took off. It appears one of the ladies from the pack that I just passed decided she was going to suck off my wheel. I spent the rest of the ride trying to filter thru the guys that we had come up on and keeping her behind me. Had gatorade on the bike and did a good job of sucking that down. Ate a hammer gel at the halfway point

Not stop for the train :)

I couldn't get the bike racked, both bikes on either side of me didn't leave me much room to get the bike on. I finally got it racked and then couldn't get my bike shoes off.

need to figure out how to get the shoes off on the bike. I dont have the bike handling skills to get the shoes off on the bike.

Took off from transitions and my calfs felt as though they were going to cramp, twinging and everything. I figured i'd just keep moving, took a quick swig of water and kept shuffling. Had a lady come shuffling by and I asked if I could run with her for a bit. She was glad to have someone to keep her company. Took some more water at the 2 mile mark and kept trudging along. She said her goal was to run 10min miles, I told her mine was to keep the wheel sucker that was now about 30s behind me back there. Didn't have to stop to walk once. The pace and run went better than I could have ever hoped for. The second run was actually a 5k PR for me.

Nothing

As soon as I finished my stomach started doing it again. spent the next 4 hours doubled over with stomach pain.


nothing it was a good race


They did wind up giving those that had to stop for the train a 2:30 minute credit. I was stopped about that long, but my dad was ahead of me and said he waited about 4 min. Apparently a new guy had taken over scheduling of the trains in that area and didn't get the message that they were supposed to be delayed an hour. 3D promised next year that this would be taken care of and since they've never had the problem before, i'll give them the benefit of the doubt.
