  • Comments: Although I was disappointed with this race, I will not let that hinder my goals and where I want to go. I know there are several areas that I need to improve on and this was an eye opener for me. I know I said earlier that this was the beginning of my triathlon journey but my mentality has started to shift into my Ironman journey. This race reminds me of how important my goal of finishing Florida is to me. I am ready to get better and keep fighting to get to my goal.

  • Comments: John Tanner is a deceptively difficult course and always brings out the fast ones at the beginning of the season. Looking forward to another round at the end of the year to measure my progress.

  • Comments: Great race for a first one of the season. PR by 6-7 minutes from last year and I know I can shave off at least 10 more with the good bike and run. Will be back :)

  • Comments: Very good event. Perfect weather day. I mis-read the preliminary results as posted and thought I was 4th. Turned out I finished 2nd! I should have stayed for the awards.
