don't know rank- there was a 5k going on at the same time. 34 out of all.

serpentine swim. It was fine. The times include the run from the timing mat into the pool and back out, probably added a minute. I'm wish I had gone faster but I passed one guy and no one caught me so I felt like I was going fast. 25 yards so hard to get into a rhythm. Should have thought better about hitting the wall and pushing off.

The race started 30 minutes late- for a 1-hour race, that's a pretty big deal.
The run included multiple loops and half-loops, and the pre-race instructions sounded confusing but it was really laid out well. 2 water stations and 4 guys with clipboards checking numbers as racers went by to make sure everyone was doing the right number of loops. The swim was very smooth too- lots of volunteers, you just had to run and swim, not wonder where you were going.
Awards took a riduculously long time. I finished the race, showered and got dressed, and they were just starting the 5k awards. The sheet was already up with the aquathon awards. I waited 15 minutes and finally had to leave without my award. This was a nice event but I don't think I'd do it again unless I had nothing else going on that day, because it started so late and awards took so long.
