I did it again!

Wow did the taper pay off.  My total time was 35min faster than two years ago.  I was a little faster in each event and transition times.   I did not seed myself very well in the swim and found a lot of people blocking me from going as fast a would have liked.   The first lap of the bike was awesome.   Ran out of steam on the second lap.   The first 10K of the marathon was very hot....but once the clouds came in it cooled down.  I did not have any calf issues.....but did have some hamstring cramping for the last 10K.    I am very happy with my time.    I wont be doing an IM next year, but definately a volunteer.   Who knows....maybe this will be an every other year thing if my wife will let me.
