Awesome. By far the fastest 750m I've done, including pool training. My time included a LONG run to transition but I was out of the water a bit after 14 min.

Struggled through. Run training was insufficient. Really emphasized swim and bike during training.

Event comments:

I should have filled this out a year ago! Thankfully I did take some notes in a personal log and was able to find my times online.

This was the 2nd year in a row doing this race and I think I'll do it again at some point to break 1:30. The only drawbacks for me are the long run to transition for T1 and the two loops on the run. Other than that, it's well organized and beautiful countryside on the bike.
