  • Comments: This is my favorite race in Richmond. I hate to say it but the swim is too easy now. For a sprint the bike is longer than normal and has a big hill and the run is challenging due to the trail running but the swim is too short and should have some upriving portion to make it more difficult. In its original format it was more of a gap filler between a standard spring and an olympic distance race. I still love it though and will continue to do it every year I can.

  • Comments: I enjoyed this race thoroughly and my only complaint was the swim was shortened a week before the event from 650m to 400m. I'd been training for 650 since January and was disappointed at not getting the chance to see how I'd do. Other than that everything was great.

  • Comments: I had fun doing a relay with friends. I think in retrospect I might have been able to do the whole day, but I know my competitive nature would have put my legs in danger on the run. 9 months of PT was more than enough for me.

  • Comments: Fun race. Looking forward to doing this again next year, and crushing my time. I had race goals of: Swim @ 8 minutes Bike @ 1 hour Run @ 30 minutes. But for blip on the running, happy with the race. Motivates me to get back in shape for future races.
