so, my race was ok.  I had bad ass competition and the fastest of the group that i was aware of came in 3rd!  a couple of locals and super fast women in my age group.  I was fourth.  Hot run... about 30 second off on my pace but maintained.  My new threshold heart rate is 164 according to Training Peaks...  My time on the bike at about 80% was good.  Hiccups with some folks continually trying to passing me and then going really slow.  One lady got a penalty for that and she appeared to be 10 years younger...  (?WTH)...  anyway, decent execution but legs still tired.  
Question:  comments on recovery?  comments on execution?  In Strava and Garmin  I think I'm turning into a humming bird although my resting heart rate is still about 50.

    BTW, even though I'm on week two of 12 for IMCanada, I am keeping my effort low and time of workouts to 1 hour this week.  Otherwise I feel pretty good!

    @Patricia Rosen - nicely done...you can't win them all (and they didn't do Boston either!). 

    The bike looks great....my only feedback is on the run, where I think you started a bit hot in miles 2 and 3...then that cost you until the end. Next time I say bide your time a bit longer and hydrate up for the final push!!!
