Event comments:

I had so much fun and could not believe my time when I finished. I was shooting for 1:20 and when I finished the clock was 1:13:xx and I thought I did great and then I realized I was in the third wave so my time was even better than I thought. This will be a great benchmark for me. What an incredibibly beautiful day for a race. I am certainly learning what my body can take and was pleased to still have a little gas left in the end for a good kick to finish. I didn't hold much back but was probably in the 90-95% of effort.

Wow, what an amazing first race! You looked really strong out there. I can only imagine what you'll be like a year (or even a couple months) from now.
GREAT job!

Thank you, you're too kind.
I'd like to do Flint Hills but will be out of town. So, I have a Duathlon in Papillion (suburb of Omaha) on June 17.
