  • Comments: This is a pretty good race, I have issues with pre race organization, but not a big deal. I don't blame the RD for canceling the swim. Frankly, as I said, was a thought that went through my mind. He has to do what's best and safest for everyone. I'm bummed for people if it was their first tri, but in reality, they probably never would have done another after that swim. It's really amazing to me, with a swim, I am near enough to the middle to dream about being competetive someday with a couple more years of base. Without the swim, I am pitiful. I know they are my limiters, but it's very discouraging to see where I end up. It's close to the DFL category, and even though it's better than DNF and DNS.... it still sucks.
