  • Comments: A better race for me than I expected. My goal was 1:32:00 to 1:35:00. Finishing in 1:23:45 was remarkable for me. Last year, this was my very first Triahtlon and I thought it was really well done for a fund raiser activity. My time was an appalling 1:55:00 while exactly one year later I finished in 1:23:45. Compared to last year there were only a fraction of the volunteers working this race. The race director again used a small bull horn to attempt to address over 500 entrants. Most of the people including myself could not understand what he was saying. I found the event to be largely unorganized and poorly done. At least some school kids got proceed to help buy them books. Sadly, gentlemen lost his life during the swim portion of the race. An autopsy is underway, however I presume he died of a heart attack. We all wish his family well.

  • Comments: for my first race it was probably the best one I could have chosen. It was local, all the people were nice and it is a beautiful course.
