Bad back. On three different meds and multiple dpoc appointments

Event comments:

This is a fantastic race for the community. The roads are basically shut down for cyclist with fire, ems and police at the turns and intersections. The town sweeps most of the roads within their district so there clean. Great race for first timers and vets alike.

I couldn’t help but feel that the race had beaten me. Perhaps duathlons were more for me? No, I was more determined than ever to succeed. I was determined to get on top of my swimming.

I am not going to buy a tri-suit before my first tri - I want to make sure I am going to stick with this before I spend a lot of money on it so I want to figure out what will work best.
