It’s nice in part because it’s close enough for a morning-of drive from DC. And the swim, although it’s adjacent to the Bay, is in a harbor so somewhat protected.

Most years just sprint and Olympic distance, and a couple of years a half IM. I always did a little stretching before and after runs, and occasionally would do some strength training (3x/week offseason), but certainly not year-round. By my late 40s I started having more issues on long runs with IT…
