I should have pulled back to recover a little, but kept pulling for the rest of the lap...'til bonktown and then fell off the back.

Didn't get lapped, and didn't DFL, but did much worse than last week.

Note to self: 48 hours is not a long enough recovery from a triathlon (yet).
sprint or ironman or something in between?

good for you for pulling. you'll figure it out more when you 'attach', but way to not be the sissy lower cat wheelsucker
