Decent overall transition.

Crazy fast bike split. Power reported was way low, probably due to zeroing issues.

Comments:

Again, solid effort.
Run

  • 10 kms
  • 05m 25s  min/km
Comments:

I was slow as it was, probably because I went too hard on the bike. At mile 4, though, I got an incredibly painful side stitch that I could not get rid of until I had walked almost all of that mile.
Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster:

Probably over doing the bike. My run training had been good up to the race.

Event comments:

The post race food was pretty dismal compared to other races in Austin.
