Right on Target - 2h47min

There is so much to tell but I'll wait until the race pictures are published to go into details. I hit my goal of finishing in 3 hours, albeit my swim distance was shortened by about 1/3 the distance due to rough waters.

All around fantastic race, I felt alternatively ecstatic, desperate, but happy most of the time. Check back in a few days for details and photos.

As the announcer stated "A novice you are no more once you cross the Tampa Bay water." Call me triathlete from now on : )
