I just read this online. His first triathlon and he drowned only 50 yards from the finish. So, so tragic and terribly sad. I wonder how this could happen. Some of our club members have done the race and have said it's one of the safest they've done (tons of kayakers in the water). I never think about the "what-ifs" on race day- I guess this is a reminder to remember to be safe out there.
I'm just so sad for him and his family...
