The swim felt great, so I am surprised that my swim time was this slow.
What would you do differently?:

Push the swim a bit harder.
Transition 1
  • 00m 40s
Comments:

Long run (200 yards fast) to transition where the ankle chip was physically placed on the biker. The biker then had to run in shoes (another 100 yards) to the next timing mat and the start of the bike portion.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing faster I could do here.

Great 5k for my daughter Sara. She is only 15, and had never ran that distance before!

Drink more, and use water to pour over body.

Some really awesome swimmers!

This race was very well run compared to previous years. This mimics, if not surpasses Ironman events. Great volunteers, great race director and a small town atmoshere! What more do you need?

Hey I did the CSG too and was on a relay team. I was with the team of middle-agers with the awesome cyclist. Nice work out there! I'm glad it got over before it got too hot.

Great Race!  I think you really nailed it with your compliments on the organization and atmosphere of this race.  I liked it a lot too, and talk about well marked calm waters! 
The race got a good write up in the local paper too.

 Are you one of us now?  (I still see MN listed. . . not that there's anything wrong with that).
