Pre-race routine:

Out of bed at 355 am. Showered to wake up. Ate half a brownie and dranks some water. 55 minute ride in with my daughter.

Comments:

I never seemed to get my breathing down so I was taking a breath every right stroke. I thought the swim was going to be lame but I was pleased. I had myself finished in 11 minutes but then we had a long run out on an asphault sidewalk to T-1. Hard on a big guy with foot issues.
What would you do differently?:

I need to practice more.

Mandi ran the 5K and did a good job.

I think there was much confusion on the route with the two lap and turn around point. Some of these times are a little suspect
