Whew. Done, and done. 4:58:06. New PR by about 10 minutes! Was nice to really dominate a run like that. Had a few issues. First off was my wet suit rubbed pretty bad on my neck and that hurt. Not so much then, but a few days later. : - /
Around mile 48 on the bike I started getting uncomfortable. Had to come up a few times and ended up riding the last probably 5miles on the bars. . Something ill need to work on. Not sure if ill be riding the new bars placid yet.
Salt H20 is no good.
DONE.
the end.
