Event comments:

This was my third triathlon however I entered as a relay team because I could not do the run. The event is for charity and I was a fundraiser and was able to generate $3500 in personal donations. I am awaiting the raffle drawing they have for fundraisers and hope to win one of the airline ticket packages they are giving away. Swim was tough on your feet with low tide and the rocks and shells but I have done this event 2x before and it was never a problem. Overall, well run and look forward to participating again next year.
