Nice swim in a lagoon, like swimming in a lake. Nice big turn buoys. Felt fine w/o a wetsuit except a couple cold pockets.

Comments:

Was dizzy after the swim, so not as quick as normal.
What would you do differently?:

Get started on the bike a little faster.

Got a little congested in the last couple miles. People too close and not holding their speed so I pushed a little too hard to just get away from them!

  • 01m 42s
Comments:

Had to take off a sock to remove rocks from T1. Otherwise pretty efficient.

Had to walk some spells unfortunately. Got better as the race went on. Plenty of water on the course. Nice weather for running.

Get faster.

Love the course. The food was excellent too - pre race meal and post race meal included in entry. High quality catering by the Longboat Key Club.
