Other Good Moments at Burnett- Feels Like Coming Home

Burnet, Texas

 

800 Meter Swim-16 Mile Bike-5K Run

 

Back to the beginning.  This is not the most organized event, but it has a laid-back feel to it that seems to override the lack of bells and whistles.  Besides, it had been my first and it always feels like coming home when I do this one.  That being said, the event usually has all kinds of glitches, which I have now learned to smile and say are “Burnet moments.” 

 

The swim buoys looked a long way off for an 800-meter swim.  Based on my times and the times of the swims of other competitors, the swim course was much more than 800 meters.  An old friend of mine helped get the safety monitors on the course get their kayaks out onto the lake.
