  • Comments: This has been a fun race the last 2 years. Very organized with tons of volunteers. Beautiful area for the race. Having an outdoor pool swim is awesome! The ride is nice- Even with the U turns- I'd rather have those and this nice even pavement rather than the scary road conditions on the Take on the Heat! Like that we don't ride in traffic- And have only one intersection to cross!

  • Comments: Very nice facility, well organized, tons of volunteers. I met Dr Cooper, very nice guy. Will definitely do it again next year. This was my 2nd sprint Tri and all of my times improved: Swim from 2:14 to 2:04 per 100yds, bike from 16.8 to 19.0 mph, run from 9:42 to 8:59 min/mile.

  • Comments: Overall a very nice race. It was well organized. I didn't give it a 5 simply because of the bike course. All the turns, u-turns, etc. were a lot for a 6 mile loop. The run course was nice though and made up some for the weird bike course. I would go do this race again.

  • Comments: I liked the race, Cooper is really nice and there are lots of volunteers. The course leaves something to be desired and is hard for spectating. The awards didn't start until almost 11am (when they noted it would be closer to 10am) after every racer was done and were all out in the sun. Long time for the first guys to wait around. Still, would do it again as it is an overall decent race with lots of food, drinks and volunteers.
