I had nothing left for a sprint at the end. I was trying to pace off one woman - she was clearly faster but she would walk up hills and I would start to catch her, then she would run again and drop me.
What would you do differently?:

train more - sprints. lose weight.

Event comments:

This race has a great vibe - very friendly and supportive. Tons of volunteers cheering you throughout the race.

Overall, I still finished 3 out of 16 in my age cat, but I was a 1:04 faster, and I picked up a little in each event (13 seconds faster in swim, 27 seconds faster in bike, and 23 seconds faster in run) I am happy with this.

This year: registered for 5:35 swim time
the family team is registered for 3:15
so next year, I should go for 5:28?
Helen should go for 3:12?
