Ok... so it's not my race, but I did a write-up of the g/f in a sprint tri with lots of pictures. This was a short, reverse sprint-tri in Irvine... A bit home-grown, and not the greatest course; but, as you will see, she had a great time in her first Tri, and I had a great time taking pictures.

The bike course was a bit funky, and basically had four "finger" loops that all converged in one center area.... imagine a clover.... Out going west, out south, back north, turn west again, out west, back east, turn north, back north, turn east, repeat 3 times...

The swim was in the pool, which she said was pretty dirty from people dropping crap in there like gels, race belts (wtf?) and other junk...

Very cute! Great pics. Always fun to see noobs have fun. (BTW, she looks really stretched out on that stem.)
