Good swim actually. Not as fast as I had hoped but my navigation to the first buoy was not very good. Seemed to be off quite a bit before I realized I needed to make a drastic change. Need to remember to take it one buoy at a time rather than try to sight to one or two buoys down the course.
What would you do differently?:

Not much. First race ever all freestyle!

Good ride. Worked hard but not so hard that I blew up on the run. The 1st place AG zoomed past me. The 3rd AG I saw at all the U-turns and this made me work hard! I did not want to let her pass me.
What would you do differently?:

Not much. This was a good solid ride.

Good run. Would not do much differently. Made sure to keep pushing myself so that 3rd AG would not catch me.

Event comments:

I had a really good time at this race. Met up with other Team Tri360 members. Was nice to have someone to hand around with.

Very nice setting. I will plan on doing this race next year.

Very happy with my effort.
