Transition 1

01m 59s

Comments:

This wasn't a good transition because I hace a strained soleus so running quickly in the bike shoes wasn't much of an option.

Bike

35m 45s
12.43 miles
20.86 mile/hr

Comments:

The style of bike rack they use in this event makes for a slower bike rack.

Run

25m 49s
3.11 miles
08m 18s min/mile

Comments:

The taped lower leg and 1/4 inch heal lifts worked great for reducing the pain from the strained soelus. My run is still off by about a minute per mile but feels like it's comming back.
