The pool was organized into 10 lanes so you only did one direction per length. This made it very nice for passing. I passed 3 people. Was very happy with my swim.

nothing.

The back strap on the helmet got stuck so I took a second to adjust that, other wise it was a good T1. I really need to learn a flying mount, I so wanted to try it today.

Know how to leave shoes on bike and do a flying mount.

Very happy with this bike. Only 2 hick ups. Around mile 6 there was a lot of vehicular traffic and I got stuck behind 2 cars that wouldn't go ANYWHERE! I had worked hard to get my average pace up to 19mph until this point and then it dropped to 18.7. Therefore I had to bust my butt on the second half to regain the lost speed.

At one of the turns I was preparing to pass the lady infront of me. I called out, "on your left" and she answered "okay," yet she moved to her left and hugged the center of the road for the turn. Therefore I had to brake to make the turn and then speed up to pass her. I'm going to excuse her behavior as newby lack of knowledge but it was frustrating.

Overall it was a great ride. Passed lots of folks.

Not get stuck behind cars.

I SOOOO wanted to pull out of my shoes on the way in but again thought better of it.

Learn how to do a flying dismount.

Pretty good run for me. First lap was 9:45, then around 10:20 for the last 2. I stopped only to drink my water. I really hate getting water up my nose while I'm running so I have no problem with those few moments of walking. Otherwise I did pretty good.

Maybe run a little faster but this was cool.

got more water and waited for Katie to finish.


Once again it was in the high 90s by run time but I'm getting more used to it.


First year for this event. Very well organized and lots of fun. I'll be back next year to improve that run time. Very cute trophies. Age groupers got little pigs and the overall winners got the Big Bad Wolf trophies.
