The waves were much bigger than I expected. Swimming is my strongest leg. However, I had issues sighting. Had to stop and breastroke twice in order to get my bearings.

Event comments:

This was my first Tri, so hard to judge. Registration line was very long and delayed race start. Fortunatey, I was very early and had no issue. The race itself seemed very organized. Bike course was well marked, run was fun on the beach.
