Race Prep:
Can you get your wetsuit off easily?
Where are you keeping your bike shoes in transition?
Are you carrying gel or food into the run or eat while in transition?

130 minute long run. 100 minutes at RPE 3, 30 minutes finish at RPE 5-7.
If you haven't experimented with gels and drinks, start here. Take a bottle to sip from every 20mins. Or so. Consume 1 gel at the 50 minute point. Try using sports drink for hydration and note any stomach problems after the gel. If so, switch to water in future runs.
6 x 400 even split for each at RPE 2-3

15k race, all out. Try to negative split each 5k, that is run the last 5k faster than the middle 5k.
If you're using a heart monitor, note the average (not max) heart rate for the race. This should correspond to somewhere around RPE 7-8.
Stretch well after racing, take in fluids afterwards.
