Post race
Warm down:

Downed water and talked with camera girl. She was kinda sassy in a good way. Ate some food and waited for others to finish.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Didn't navigate crowd in swim well. Transitions need practice. Gotta open up the legs in the run.

Event comments:

Volunteers were aweseome. Very nice area. Excellent organization. Pardeeville Lions Club provided sandwiches. Only one question - no beer at the end of the event? This is Wisconsin, I expect it. Good thing we brought some Guinness.
