I didn't hear the starting horn - not that it made much difference. I had a little trouble keeping a straight line & probably swam a few extra yards.

Newtonian physics

Event comments:

I really like this race. It is short, but challenging due to the hills. I also like the larger than normal ratio of swim to bike & run.
