Comments:

Found out that I swim better in a straight line then constant turns. Very cold if you do not have a wet suit. Not sure if I would wear one next year due to the fact that it is a short swim and I would need to take the suit off at transition.
Transition 1
  • 03m 8s
Comments:

Quick transition. Hard to run in Tri-bike shoes but not worth running barefoot.

Comments:

Passed lots of people. Was passed by 4-5 people. Probably one of my better bike times for the distance.
Transition 2
  • 01m 31s
Comments:

Another quick transition.

Comments:

Nice course. Not bothered by cramping.
What would you do differently?:

More time running for the training.

Event comments:

Not sure if I will do this race again because of the swim course. If I do then it will be in a wet suit.
