Event comments:

RAM Racing event. RAM stands for Really Against Measuring. My swim was 5 minutes faster than last year. 13 minutes slower than an alleged 1500 at Bigfoot (also a RAM race) and only three minues slower than 1.2 at Racine. The swim could NOT have been 1500.

RAM just doest get this one right. The swim was long AGAIN. A little better with amount of water on course, but thank GOD it was overcast or couldve turned into another zombie shuffle.

I dont know if I will go back next year. That lake is nasty with weeds and mud at exit and RAM cannot get a swim course right. Trouble is that it is soooo close, hard to pass up race basically in back yard.
