  • Comments: I really enjoyed the race and thought they did a nice job of putting it on. Very newbie friendly and very competitive as well. Nice mix of participants. I would definitely do it again. On a personal note I'm really pleased with placing 22nd on my first traithlon. I think thats a strong performance and just makes the top ten percent of the field. Considering I've been following a half ironman training plan for several weeks now and just did a two day block of training that included a 60 mile ride / 3 mile run brick followed the next day with a 13 mile run on the thursday/friday before the Sunday race I think I should be really pleased with my performance. With a proper taper I expect I could be faster... but theres no time for that. The 1/2 is in six weeks and thats my priority.

  • Comments: I can't pint point what was wrong, because I felt kind of weird the whole time but I can't complain about my performance because it was pretty good. The race was pretty good, and I will be doing next year without a doubt.
