Event comments:

The race venue changed a week before the race. The marina's new owner recanted permission. Set-Up and the RD had a back up. Good job! The 2 issues were a bike shorted by 1 mile and a significantly tougher run course. Overall a great job keeping the race on with very little time. Hope to do more Set-Up events...
