  1. For an hour and a half, it was the race I wanted. A fast paced swim (for me) despite swimming an extra 300 yards, and a fast pace on the bike for the first 18 miles. But then my poor hydration struck, and I fought leg cramps for the rest of the race. 🤕

      I finished a bit better than my "something really bad must have happened" goal of 3h. I missed my run goal by 7 minutes, thanks to stopping to stretch out the cramps, running only as fast as my legs would let me, and walking a bit when feeling crushed.

        But I'm excited for the next. I learned that I need to force myself to hydrate more. No mechanicals, like I was worried! I wasn't last place in my age group, even amongst the strongest field I've seen. And I got to race with this badass, so things aren't looking so bad.
