  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: They screwed up with the timing so results took a while to show up. I think there is still an error with the swim segment as somebody has a ridiculously fast time and I verified that I was first out of the water in my heat.

  • Comments: Although I liked Bonelli Park and could see racing there again, I think it will be for Danskin or the Tri Express in the summer. I really think that late November is just too cold for an OW swim. The bike course is a nice challenge. I think that with a little more hill and strength training, I could master it. The run would actually be a fun course, if I was not injured. I'd like to give it a try on a better day. As far as the organization of the race, I really don't think it was well done. I know that this is an inaugural event, but it was put on by a company that does other races. I felt that there was very little information given to us ahead of time, compared to other races I've done. I would have liked to have had a packet pick up, expo and course talk on Saturday. The morning packet pick up was late and disorganized. Also, there was never a course talk. No one told us where to swim until the 11th hour. No one warned us about the tricky parts of the course. I plan to return to Bonelli
