  • Comments: This being the second year of the race, I think they didn't expect as many people to show us. My wife said they were trying to recruit voluteers from the crowd. I think this could be a great race as I liked the location and the course and even the swim in the pristine Merrimac. I will do this race again.

  • Comments: I had a BLAST! Only the second year for this race.They could use a better registration process, more portajohns, closer parking, and age group awards should be more standardized. The course itself is a good one,swim safety was good,few more volunteers & marking on the bike needed..nice out & back run, live band at post race was a treat, good bike shop support on site,,think as this race evolves will just get better & better. I will do this race again.

  • Comments: race could use some improvements. This is their 2nd year and things need to be worked out. Not enough volunteeers and not enough organization at the registratiosn table. Some late riders got off course and that is never a good thing, indicates sloppy marking and direction, possible major safety problem. RUn course could have had mile markers. Awards for age groups were messy. Overall, a good venue, good post race activities, and good timing,

  • Comments: This race was a great one. Definitely one I'll do again. The key is definitely be there early! The field was good size and the registration line was way long. They delayed the race start 10 minutes-thankfully because some of us were still getting our numbers but it was very well run and the volunteers/staff were great. The transition area was good although pretty crowded-I barely found room on my rack. The finish line was a good one-proper finish. And I really liked that they chip-timed our transitions. The rain really, really was coming down and dry and sunny tends to be nicer but I have to say the rain-being summer rain-really keeps you cool. Just like in Webster when it also rained and hard-I was never hot. It was an overall good race and I feel like they are only getting better and better. Still not moving up far enough in the ranks-but its about my personal ranking for now-and I'm finishing and finishing better each time. I'll get there. Plenty more tris this summer
