Not too bad for my first open water start. Little choppy. Not able to get any kind of breathing rythem.

try to get a little ocean swimming in before the race. Need new goggles, these leaked on the right eye the whole way. Work on more strokes to breath.

Put the shoes on while sitting. Insert kept getting stuck. Lost at least 30 seconds. Eventually just rode the insert into place.

Maybe some new shoes and learn to jump on bike barefoot. Had tough time with riding jersey when wet. will try to swim with it on in training next summer for wet suit runs.

Very nice ride overall. First and last legs very bumpy, one person taken out on a streatcher near a pothole. The middle section down the river flat and fast. Sea breeze for the way out.

Very comfortable on this leg. Not too worried at this time.

Liked this transition better. Was relatively quick. Only problem was almost slipping (with explitives) when I first entered the building on a whole in the concrete floor

learn to run with out sox

Ran my race. Paced what I knew I could do.

Must work on speed. Much too slow in this race. Will work on distance and increaced speed for the spring.

Shamefully none


First season with completion as the goal. Next year will have better placemnet and closer splits.


Loved the kids race for those under 16 at the end...50 yds 3-6 100 7-10 150 up to 16. Very well run race with the families in mind. Lots of small freebies for the kids. Would like to run Clydsdale next year althogh this year I would have been DFL in that catigory.
