Sprint, beach start.

Great swim 10'50'' to a fast draft legal bike. Was drafting in the drops the whole time through the city, very crazy. Hit the transition zone for the run at 50'01'' with the main leading pack. Terrible right calf cramp had to stop at least a minute, maybe more. At the half way point on the run felt like I was going to pass out and vomited, immediately felt better and finished the run. Overall 1 hr 14' could have gone under 1hr10 if not for problems on the run.

Probably the run was such because of excessive heat, race started at 2:00 pm with zero cloud cover and probably 35% humidity. Either way great race only my third sprint and beat my last time by 10 minutes.

Anyone who reads this board race in Italy?
