  • Overall course based on my ability: Too hard

  • Comments: This was my first race so I have nothing to compare it too. My goal was just to finish. I did have mental times I wanted to accomplish. I did better than anticipated on the swim. I did as expected on the bike and did worse on the run. I was super inspired and impressed to see people in their 70's racing. The fact that I completed this in less than desirable conditions makes me proud of the accomplishment. I never once thought of quitting. I willd o this again because I want to finish strong. I want to run my entire distance, Iwant to swim without breaks (from letting people pass me at the wall) or swimming on my back. And I want to be much stronger on the bike. The people who raced it and volunteered it where great and even though I was in the BOP I felt equally as taken care of and cheered on as the person who won it. My training log use to say, "One day I will call myself a triathlete" . Today, I will change it to "I did it! I'm a triathlete"

  • Comments: I liked the race. Good course. I was hoping to podium for the first time today, but I had the toughest AG. I gave it everything I had but my transitions cost me 2 spots in my AG. Oh well, something to learn from as I move forward.
