Comments:

The swimming event was cancelled due to lack of water in the man-made lake at this time. A 2.2 mile run was subsituted instead for the Sprint portion of the Tri, followed by the planned bike race and 5K run.

Did this part in 30 mins right on my target time

I was really shakey coming off the bike, my legs really buckled and the walk back to the transition area was rough. Once I got there I felt better and legs were good for the next run.
