Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster:

Did not train enough on the bike. Definitely did not train for the types of climb I would be facing.

Event comments:

Overall, I liked this race and will try to do it again next year. It is a good challenge at the sprint level. My only complaint was that the paths in and out of transition were a little tight, making it easy to lose time there.
