I was in your wave as well and felt the same way. I had so many girls blow by me in the second half of the bike who I had passed handily pretty much right out of the water. It was especially frustrating because I'm a strong cyclist and a not so great runner and I pretty much totally lost my advantage at this race by racing clean and shredding my legs before the run. I even had a "why bother" moment in T2 where I thought about dropping out but then just decided to stick with it and at least get a result I could be proud of because I earned it on my own legs.
