Happy with my run. My legs were toast after the bike and I am glad that I held it together. Passed a few and was only passed by 1 guy. He ran 23 even and had the fastest run of the day.
What would you do differently?:

Run faster :) Next year I want to run 24 even.
Post race
Warm down:

Hung out with the fam for a bit and then got Tyler's stuff set up for the kids tri.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

I need to start doing longer and harder bike rides.

Event comments:

This was my 3rd year at Clear Lake. I was 22nd, 14th and now 8th. It is fun to come back and see how my fitness continues to improve. This is our favorite race ever. The park is nice for the kids. They also do a kids tri after the race. My 6 year old son raced in it today. We had a great time together!

Big prope to Skagit County Parks and Rec for another job well done.
