This was my first full triathlon. Albeit a sprint, it was the first time putting the swim-bike-run together. I had done a handful of aquathlons leading into this race, so it was just great getting out and doing this. Overall, the race was pretty good. Being the first time competing on the bike was different. I thought that I'd be a little faster, but don't you always? Bottom line - this race was just a thrill having been the first. Swim was smooth, bike was decent and run was great.
