Did not swim well. Was not able to get good rhythm or strokes. Very out of breath when exiting water.

Hills were tough. Also, dropped water bottle in beginning of race so pretty thirsty throughout. Also, did not have bike computer set up so I didn't know my pace or distance. There were some really good head winds. Roads were wet so took some turns slower than normal.

Very thirsty because I didn't have water bottle during bike portion. Didn't have to change from bike shoes because I wore my running shoes during bike ride. Also, road running shirt during bike ride.
What would you do differently?:

Not much.

Event comments:

Very nice venue. It's my first one and I'm from Florida so the hills were a little harder for me than I thought they would be. I would definitely do it again.

The triathlon made a lot of sense as I could fit the training around early mornings and other times that wouldn't eat too much into my family time. Things never go completely to plan do they?

Both the Lake Triathlon Shoe CX210TRI and the Lake Road Shoe CX225 offer distinct advantages. I tested both shoes and found them to be extremely comfortable, good looking and durable.
