Event comments:

The threat of weather made this challenging. This was also my first open water swim, so in some ways I didn't mind having a shortened swim. The heat at the end made for a difficult run.

I was passing others who were saying, "Good job, 587" (that was my race number). People were cheering me on. These were the nicest people I have ever been around!
