Run 1 (1.1 miles):
The first run of the day started at 7. I found a rhythm and kept with the main part of the pack. I came in with a time of 6:30.
There was nothing special about this transition. I felt I could have been faster but all things considered, I was out fairly quickly.
Bike (9.3 miles):
The bike felt really good. We headed out to one of the local military areas and made two laps and came back to transition. Again, nothing really notable. I came in with a bike time of 24:36.
T2:
I hated having such a long run out of transition with the bike and having to run the same distance back in. I don't like running in cycling shoes. I changed back over to running shoes, visor and grabbed a water bottle.
I don't know exactly if and how much my running routine of late contributed to a stronger run than normal. I averaged 8:08 per mile today. This is roughly 40 seconds per mile average faster than the Strawberry Fields Du. I didn't feel as gassed on the run as I normally do and likely could have run a little faster if I could have put my dislike for running away in the back of my head.
