iI thoroughly enjoyed this tri!! It was a great first tri and I am definitely going to do it again next year. It was well run and the pre and post race were great. The course was nice and organized and the set up of the pool swim was perfect, especially for my first tri. As for the other posted all of the info about this tri was on their site so I don’t see how you can say it wasn’t challenging enough. The distances were listed so that should have given you an idea of how challenging it would be
