One of my better swims despite starting toward the end of the line.. Stayed to the right and avoided most swimmer until the last 75 yards. Felt comfortable through out and very controlled.

T1 was good. Wearing the ROKA shorts gave me good buoyancy and are so much easier to get off than a wetsuit. Race was wetsuit legal but given short distance I felt going without would be better.

Solid but not spectacular bike. Started out with power in 250 watt range but seemed to back off in the middle of the bike leg. Picked it up over the last 2-3 miles and ended up 242/243.
Course was fairly crowded given my late start. Should have pushed harder and sucked it up.

Need to commit to working harder on the bike in shorter events. .

One of the faster T2s. Good rack position near bike entry and everything went smoothly

This felt hard from the beginning. Never felt like I was in control and breathing was hard throughout. Course just does not give you a chance to recover. Felt like I really struggled and would have hoped to be 15-30 seconds faster.

I pushed to my limit so gave it what I had that day.

Short cool down. Visited with friends and hung around for drawings and awards.


Nothing really. Its been a good season. This was my 11th race of the year. Can't say I was burned out but probably not at my peak either. Satisfied with the result. Always happy to make top 10 overall.


Race was well done. Really quick posting results. Lots of prizes in drawing. A little slow to get to awards but can't complain. They do a good job with the race.
I ended up getting bumped up to masters from grandmasters based on placing and getting 3rd there.
