• Comments: First Tri I completed. The 1st I attempted was cancelled before I finished because of athlete death. Last I will participate in this year. Lots of work to do over fall/winter. Will be back to this event next year.

• Comments: Another race where I have to take the good with the bad. Not surprisingly, the swim was a weak spot. The trouble with transitions - pretty upset with myself for that. Between T1 and T2, I easily lost a minute or more searching for my rack. On the upside, I had a strong bike and followed up with a strong run. Next step is to put together a complete race.

• Comments: The volunteers did a great job on the bike course warning of sharp turns and dangerous railroad crossings. I can't wait for this event next year and hopefully by then I will have figured out how to swim in a straight line. Goals Swim: 10 Minutes -- 4 Minutes Off T1: 4 Minutes -- 2:59 Picked up a minute Bike: 43 Minutes -- 43:59 Goal Met!!! T2: 2 Minutes -- 1:39 Goal Met!!! Run: 33 Minutes -- 34:13 Will work on it. Total time goal 1:32 Actual: 1:36 This is mostly because of I underestimated the swim navigation. I can work on that and fix it. Next year I am hoping to hit around 1:20.

• Comments: Average because there wasn't enough security in the transition area. Spectators were walking around in transition and when we took our bikes out no one asked to check our numbers. Anyone could have easily stolen a bike.
