I really liked this course. Rollers, but some quick sections. Lots of shoulder room on the busier roads. Only short sections of beat up roads, which is nice that far north in NH.
What would you do differently?:

Stay on my power. I slacked a bit miles 25-30.

I got my feet out of the shoes a bit too early. otherwise, uneventful.

I just can't run fast. The course felt hilly, but looking at the data afterwards, it's not really that bad.

Warm down:

Watch the kids race their duathlon.

Event comments:

This was great for what it is, a local, independent race. not a ton of frills, but that's not why we do this. Tons of race options sprint tri, oly tri, aquabike, duathlon, and a kids race. the facility is great, with family activities, inexpensive lodging RIGHT AT transition, food, etc. A really nice time, and i'll likely for sure be back her next year. The only thing I'd recommend is maybe pushing the kids race back another 10 minutes. I was in the front half of the finishing Olympic racers and had to run right from my finish line to the kids race start line.

After doing duathlons for the last couple of years, I decided to go for a triathlon. Starting with an Olympic-distance race perhaps wasn't wise, but it was fun (of a sort).
