I felt like I did this really good. I was not gassed at all. I felt good. My sighting and swimming a straight line suffers as I get tired, but I thought it was good.

Event comments:

The whole timing snafu really sucked. The website is not accurate at all and that honks me off. I got 5th in my age group, which I got a prize for, but then the results on the website don't reflect that at all. It has my swim and run times all screwed up.
Also, the swim course was WAY longer than 600 yds. I went ahead and upped my swim yardage based on what I know I swim that distance in. Anyway, I still love the venue, love the comrade, and will be back next year!
