Comments:

It was freezing waiting for all the waves to go ahead of me.
What would you do differently?:

I wouldn't sign up as a novice so I wouldn't have to wait so long to start. The mental part of being the very last start of the race is difficult to deal with during the whole race.

I forgot to reset my computer so it was difficult to know where I was in the course. Dumb mistake

Actually ride the course before hand if possible.

Event comments:

Even though there were not a lot of first timers, it was a good race to start in. Easy courses and a with-the-tide swim to make you feel fast! (Note the swim times include a 400 yd waddle/dash over a dock, through a parking lot, across the main road and winding through the T zone).
