my having fun. I talked to everyone I passed to thank the volunteers or encourage others. Next time it's about ME and my time!!

Event comments:

Great volunteers and very well ran race. I had so much fun and have no reason to NOT return to this race. i had a great time for my 1st tri, but need something a little more challenging next time. Pacific Crest should do that for me.
