Great race! I am particularly surprised at the remark you made about wanting to swim faster - looks pretty fast to me.

Congratulations!

Going to do Quartermax in st louis,mo. The bike course has about 4 miles of hills about 1 mile out from T1. Run has more hills than MIM and the hills are short and steep. Distance is .6/30mi/6.5 mi This is my first "A" race on my schedule.
