Comments: My first Tri was Ramblin Rose in Winston Salem (2008), which I felt was much better organized. It's a wonderful race for women, and especially new triathletes (like myself!). However, I think after some more training I will be looking for a different Sprint distance race in which there is a little more organization in the pool, and more rules enforced on the bike.
I finished the race with my hands in the air, and even beat my first race time by 3 minutes! This race gave me the confidence to keep training for races in the future!
