Comments:

For the first tri, swimming with all those people in the water was nerve racking. Everyone was out for the death it seemed. People didn't watch where they were going and just seemed to swim no matter what. I guess I am not a good swimmer, need to improve my technique.

Comments:

Not a fast runner, need to work on my times. When mapped out on BT, it seemed like this course was actually 3 miles, therefore my times would be about 9:30's like my race numbers actually show. My race time showed 9:28.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Experience, this was my first tri, now I aim for improving my times and abilities at minimum.

Event comments:

Very unorganized and no USAT rules followed, made the bike difficult, a lot of blocking and crossing the yellow line. Also they should limit participation or make a 2 day event out of it. There were too many people for a short course.
