Good swim, pretty rough. Didn't really have anyone to draft off since it was so spread out. Swim could have been better though.

Good transition, people were infront of my rack to I had to get around them.

nothing
Run
  • 51m 44s
  • 8 miles
  • 06m 28s  min/mile
Comments:

Run could have been I think about 3 minutes faster. The last 3 miles the seams from my shoes and the mixture of sand were rupping away at my feet causing me to slow down. Had huge cuts on the sides of my feet. Not good. Started out really good at probably a 5:50/mile pace then hit the hills and slowed to about 6:10/mile. Passed more pros and had a camera on me for the first 2 miles.
What would you do differently?:

get new racing flats without seams
