300 yd pool swim, 14 mile bike, 3.5 mile run. Not to mention the 2 hr car ride to get there! Up at 3:45am. It took forever to get started, but met some nice people in line for the swim start. It was good for us both until we got to the run. It ended up going fine, but I was ready to be done. Had my new tri shoes on that I didn't quite tighten right so my foot was slipping some. Curtis did great on the swim (his first time to go 300 in a race format). It was a nice overcast day so it turned out to be a blast. It was good to see what kind of shape we were in and how we compared to others in a race. Right after the race, I asked Curtis if he was ready to sign up for the Half Ironman. He said, "Yeah, sure." I hooked him line and sinker.
