Got there with the wife, tought her how to set the transition, got her all set up, and got my stuff set up next to her.

This race is all about her, and just there to keep her motivated, and present as an emtional booster and as a husband keeping her company.

Very well ran event for brand new beginners. Would recommend it anytimes. They had a recreational wave, which is what Linsy and I did, and the swim was very well done with staggered starts and making the accountability of all swimmers a top priority. Sweet race. I'm going back next year, but toa race the Sprint distance and for her to do that same course again see the improvements.
