Comments:

This swim seemed like an eternity last year. I remember literally being tired in 50 yards. I thought that was going to be my last triathlon. This year I knew exactly what to expect. Start though was different. Run into the water which caused some congestion at first. Cleared out quickly.
Transition 1

Comments:

My watch had this at 10.25. It was a mediocre ride. To be expected with my lack of training.
What would you do differently?:

Train more.

Estimate.
Run
  • 24m 35s
  • 3 miles
  • 08m 11s  min/mile
Comments:

My GPS watch had this at 2.85 miles. A little tight coming off the bike considering I haven't done any bricks. Loosened up at the end. It finishes with a big hill which made me excited. I saw people walking and stopping on it and I easily went by due to my hill conditioning.
What would you do differently?:

Bricks
Post race
Warm down:

Got some food. Jammed home and played golf in the afternoon.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Me

Event comments:

Low-key event. Just wished it had started somewhere near on time. Waiting 30 minutes to go into the water can be taxing on the nerves.

Overall, I like the event and will try to keep it in my rotation.
