  • Comments: I thought this was a great race. It was hard, but not outside of my abilities. It pushed me a lot and was a great challenge. I know what I need to do to be better prepared for next time around, and I'm energized to go into my next sprint knowing that I'll be able to handle it no problem after dealing with Galena! :)

  • Comments: I know people tell you not to come into your first event with any expectations, but being a competitive person I thought 1:45:00 could be achieved. But due to my under emphasis on training for the bike, I was somewhat disappointed with my results. But it will certainly make me work harder for my next event. The scenery for this competition is incredible and makes the bike ride very enjoyable. I see why it's one of the top events--it's extremely challenging and has amazing views. I will definitely be back next year!

  • Comments: Kind of disappointed with my rank, but Galena brings out many good triathletes. So I can't complain too much. I just need to eliminate the wasted time in transitions and continue to improve my own conditioning and save a few more minutes here and there. Still a 14 minute improvement over last year.
