1st tri ever. Wanted to make sure I could finish.

Event comments:

Id like better swag to take hom after race probably through them providing a better prerace goodie bag. I would like if they gave technical tshirts instead of cotton maybe and a few gu energy gels...etc. I wish races gave awsome swag like goggles and tri shorts and bike computers...etc...but that's kind of unrealistic. Overall it was excellently organized. The post race food was about average. Fruit, granola bars, water, sandwiches. I really liked that the riding course was well marked with lots of volunteers. All the cheering people really encouraged me.
