Outstanding bike and run times for only your second race.  You are head and shoulders above most are this early in their tri career.  Wait until you get that swimming in line.  Nice job.

looking awesome! Congrats on the great race....a crooked helmet just says "attititude!" And sometimes the best warm up is pacing!! I'm sure mostly eveyone will agree that you will never be 100% happy with your swim performance!! (mine suck as well)
