Run
Comments: ran this faster than my intended pace of 10min/mi but I think it was OK. Warm and humid, but "pleasant" compared to later 15/21 AG 95/127 F 315/360 OA Transition 1
Comments: transition from run went pretty smoothly except half my race number came unpinned and I forgot to drop my water bottle belt (not a real problem) however, terrible mount and start: both rubber bands for my shoes had come off so I had a hard time getting going, getting on top of the shoes, and then into them. This has never happened before. I'm wondering if I was sabotaged 4/21 AG 22/127 F 77/360 OA Bike
Comments: loop 1 went well, but I went at it a bit too hard (and paid for it later). a 70% effort in training got me about 50 minutes for a loop, but I did the first loop today in 47:02. I deliberately backed off on loop 2 and did that in 49:34. moving dismount was OK, but one of my slower ones 12/21 AG 54/127 F 214/360 OA Transition 2
Comments: definitely not one of my better ones: someones bike was basically in my spot, so racking my bike was slow. then, I lost a moment seeing if there was anything to be done for re-pinning my bib (nope, so I just tucked the loose end under my bottle belt). then, I was ready to exit TA 6/21 AG 44/127 F 151/360 OA Run
Comments: it was obvious right away that I wasn't going to be running any 9 minute miles, so I settled in for whatever I could muster. VERY hot and VERY humid. saw so many people walking but vowed not to be one of them. goal achieved not a great run, but still my best event today by ranking! 11/21 AG 53/127 F 182/360 Post race
