  • Comments: REALLY wish they would start this race earlier in the morning. Also hope that they change the direction of the swim back to clockwise (how it was last time I raced it). Spotting that buoy in the sun is REALLY hard. As well, seems like the food available at the end was kind of limited (bagels, oranges, and bananas) Maybe it's because I LOVE grapes ;) Perhaps I'll do it again in another two years.

  • Comments: That was a very challenging race - my first triathlon in over a year. But I knew it was going to be doozy. I've only been back in triathlon and training mode for a month and a half or so, and I haven't done nearly enough yet. I wanted to do this, though, to establish a starting point of sorts for myself. More than ever, I realize the enormity of the road ahead of me. Getting ready for an Ironman in 10 months is going to be the greatest physical and mental challenge of my life. Whooo boy, can't wait!

  • Comments: I've said this before for this race but they should reverse the swim so we aren't swimming into the sun.

  • Comments: Someone needs to give those volunteers a red bull or something. Most of them were teenagers. all of them were lackluster in their enthusiasm for the race. But at least they were there, and they were cheering us on. A little. The sheriffs and highway patrol doing traffic control were awesome. They smiled, and answered back when I thanked them as I went by. At the next race, I should really have someone else spray my sunscreen on for me. I have 2 crispy shoulders. I can't even wear a normal bra because it rubs. :( My poor shoulders.
