  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: I'm not sure what a good solution is for the bike portion, but the duct taped speedometers just don't work. One of my friends finished 3rd on the swim and 1st on the run (3.18 miles, and the only person to break 3 miles), but had a bad bike and finished 24th (out of 54) after having to switch. It would have come down to the bike for him and me to win it. I'm pretty sure my cadence (and thus, speed) was faster anyway, but at least he should have had a fair shot. Otherwise, the race went very smoothly. The workers were well organized and directed people through the facility well. It was also nice that we had a choice between red and black tech T-shirts (as I got a black one in the spring). While short, these races are a great way to assess progress over the course of the year. I'll definitely continue to do at least one each season, if not two (particularly if they're only $25).
