Swim seems to be fading. Breathing never got on target and it effected the time badly. The best part was my tracking was dead on.
What would you do differently?:

Need to perfect my breathing during races. More time in pool

After first mile ..lost rear tire pressure . Had to suffer through end of bike with about 70 lbs pressure.
Hills were horrible but really kept pedalling hard on downhills and turns.

Found family and spoke with other teammates. At a half of banana and some sprite. Kids ate the wnderful pasta they were supplying
