This was my second triathlon ever and my first Olympic distance. The swim and bike dropped my bloodsugars much more than any cross country races ever did (they always made my BG skyrocket.) I was not able to test off of the bike because my tester was out of the normal temperature range (it was sitting with the heat pocket needed to keep it warm enough to work at the start, but the combination of that and the sun made it too warm 2 hours later in the day.) I ran horribly. I ended the race low and a little shaky at 65 or so.
