Sprint Distance race:
1/3 mile, 16 miles, 3.2 miles

Beautiful day in Chaska, MN for a quick race. The swim starts in the little pond, and when I say little, the 1/3 of a mile swim was an out and back and used 90% of the length of the pond. The bike was a slightly hilly course, but negligible wind made the course faster than expected. The run was about a 1 mile up-hill followed by a few turns on flat ground for the second mile and the third mile was almost all downhill.

I improved my time from 2 years ago by about 3.5 minutes with improvement in both the swim and run. Swim:10: 18, T1-1:14, Bike:41:11 (23mph, 1st overall excluding teams), T2-0:32 Run: 18:55 (6:08 pace, 10th overall), total time of 1:12:08. 5th overall of all racers and 4th in the 20-24 age bracket. Fastest time was 1:09:29
