Comments: I had fun at the event, and it had highs and lows. It seemed a little disorganized, but it didn't affect my enjoyment too much. I was disappointed with my run, thrilled with my bike, and frustrated with my swim. I met some great people, saw some great people I already know, and it was a beautiful day. I learned about race strategy/management and it will help me be better in the future. All races are special in one way or another, and I feel like I grew because of this one. As a matter of perspective, just last September, I was just enjoying the scenery. In some ways, it's a loss of innocence since it is not brand new anymore. I feel like I have progressed now to a point where I can critique my performance, see the good and the bad and the opportunity for improvement. I am no longer simply satisfied to drag myself across the finish line. However, I know now that even without the newness, I enjoy this sport and since I can constantly strive to get better, it will not get boring.

Comments: Overall it was a great first race, I really appreciated the support of everyone there. It has been especially good staying motivated with the OWS with ESCKTC out at Saguaro Lake as that helped me alot in staying calm in the water. The event was put on pretty well overall despite the overbearing/anal race director. Now I am ready to train harder and get ready for the next one.
