• Comments: This was a good, well run race. I would not consider it too be too hard of an event based on my limited experience. Both the bike and run were on flat ground and the swim was in a protected harbor with no waves to contend with. However, I pushed harder in the swim, set a good pace on the bike and pushed sufficiently hard on the run to make it a challenge. I will be back next year!

• Comments: Very good well organized race. great scenery around the lake. Learned some lessons about bike handling, and paying attention to signs. I deserved to be DQ'd. I was unsafe and could have hurt myself. Descent back from clean air into thick brown clouds of inland empire was obscene. Swim distance was way shorter than advertised. Tough sprint because of the hilly bike, hilly run, even hilly transition along with 5000 ft of altitude. Apparently some people really sucked wind due to the elev.

• Comments: I definitly need to train better / smarter and plan ahead, e.g., if the triathlon is going to be hilly, then I need to train in the hills, if its in a cold lake, then need to get in the cold water. Elevation of 5200 was killer. Overall, it was a beautiful day and a fun time.
