I really wasn't sure that I was ready for the race, and considered dropping out all the way until the day before. I'm glad I did it.
Here's the race report I posted on Beginnertriathlete.com

Great job!!! I heard it was so cold they had an optional shorter swim and a lot of racers didn't race because of the cold. So when is your next half?
Vineman is nice. Jones.

That's a really cool format for the report. You did great, I think!! When's Vineman?
There's a really cool series of halfs here in Florida, two weeks apart for three of them, starting the middle of May. Too bad I suck at swimming!

Congrats Vic! Isn't that an Awesome feeling to finish something that you just weren't sure you even wanted to start?? Job Well Done my friend!
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"
