I started off in the back of the pack, and quickly got a leak in my googles. Once I was able to tread and get that situation corrected, I was off. I felt great, and passed a ton of people. The water wasn't too crowded, so that helped. Faster open water half mile of my life.

I hit the hills well, and probably pushed a little too hard on the bike, hurting my run a little bit.

The first hill was a killer, and I kinda crashed early in the third mile, falling off my pace. But my final kick felt fantastic.

This was a very good race. I think I'll be back in 2015 to do the Olympic course.

My first triathlon was at age 56. At first I was just the cameraman at my daughter's first triathlon, then I am doing the races that she has done.

I was passing others who were saying, "Good job, 587" (that was my race number). People were cheering me on. These were the nicest people I have ever been around!
