Actually, alot of fun. Hyperventilated in beginning, but fine once I got my bearings. Felt really good

Not much, maybe got in water earlier during warm up

Horrendous. No volunteers out, just had to watch for signs. I ended up taking a wrong turn and biked an additional 2 miles the wrong way. Supposed to be 12 miles
What would you do differently?:

Paid more attention to signs

Transition area was a mess. Completely disorganized. Finding my area was difficult.

Once again, not organized. Dodging kids, sandcastles and holes. Had one "water station" that had no volunteers at it. Had to pour your own water.

Event comments:

Horrible race. I will never do it again. I can't believe how few volunteers were there. The t-shirt was nice though
