I was very pleased with this swim. Everything felt good considering the conditions we had. My navigation was about perfect and I didn't managed to take any mouthfuls of water.

Swim faster, but I think I swam about as good as I could.

I didn't get my wetsuit off as quick as was hoping but I didn't think that it took me as long as the clock says. Part of the time I might have just been getting use to standing up again after the swim.

Just be quicker!!

I was hoping this would have been quicker but I can't complain for my first olympic distance race. Would love to get my avg mph over 20 next week in Baxter.

GO FASTER!!

When I came into T2 I carried my bike over the curb and my back brake was moved enough that it was preventing my back wheel from moving. Managed to drag it to my spot though. I just hope it wasn't like that during the race. Getting the bike shoes off running shoes on went good though.

Not take as much time :)

I was very happy with this run. I have been running this pace during my sprint races and now I managed to keep it during a 10K run. Calves were tight coming off the bike and once that went away the hamstrings felt very tired. Good run though, can't complain.

GO FASTER!!

Changed and warmed up. Managed to chat with a few fellow racers and then enjoyed lunch that was provided by the race.


Lack of tough training in the last few weeks. With work being crazy and working on getting ready for college again, I slacked on some workouts.


This was definitely a fun race. The cold weather made for a tough start but I really enjoyed the course. The bike course went through the area of WeFest which is a HUGE country musical festival held in early August. The race staff was awesome, the lunch held afterwards was delicious, and I will definitely be signing up for this one again in future years.
