Swim didn't feel as bad as it ranked, but probably got caught up more at start in traffic than would have liked and impacted time. Transitions were okay, but slower than those who finished around me. Run got started slow.

Event comments:

This is a very nice race. The swim, bike and run courses are set up well for a fast race. The ride and run on the nickel plate trail is awesome. The diamond shape swim was unique, but I found it to be really simple to swim around. Race director does a great job with supplying lots of information before, during and after the race.
