  • Comments: 1 minute faster than my 1st Olympic Triathlon and 5 second faster than my brother. I hoped to have a better time but it's ok considering the swim part and the weather. The difficulty of this race is higher than the Ottawa River Triathlon (My 1st Olympic Triathlon). Considering everything, I'm happy with my time! I'm disqualified because of my T2, but now I'll remember that rule!

  • Comments: Lots of volunters, they were great! Could of have more drinking stations on the run but it was still ok. Very well organized! The only bad thing was the post-race lunch... bagels and bananas.. that's it! Really disapointing! Tough race but I'm very happy with my results! My first Oly, I did pretty well!

  • Comments: Good course for up to Olympic Distance, too many out and back for the 1/2 ironman. Also a very good course for specktakers to watch. The bridge allows people to watch the swimmers in the canel, and the bike and run course go through center town, so lots of opportunity to watch your friends race. Water temperature was realitively warm, some went without wetsuits. I used mine more to helop with bouyancy so that currents in the canel would affect me less.

  • Comments: First Olympic in the books! Much tougher than I had anticipated but is a great confidence booster! Looking forward to my next one. To half-iron or not to half-iron?...
