  • Comments: Great time traveling, preparing with our TriRochester group. The elder Carey's hospitality was beyond expectations. Great to have Mark Carey win a hometown race. We also had Andy and Sawra win their AG. Diana and Harvey were 2nd. We had an awesome club showing. I'll strongly consider coming back next year. A few more porta-potties would have been good.

  • Comments: First year for event but they pulled it off very well. I was told transition racks were numbered so I arrived at 6:15 but with family rather than driving separately and arriving at 5am. Surprise, transition is first come, first served, but there really were no bad spots with the flow through layout. Would've liked a bit more communication, i.e. site map with parking but I everything about the event was well run, I'll be back next year. Really liked the mass start, it's nice knowing that you're racing someone, not 5 minutes up or 5 minutes back.

  • Comments: Awesome race. Make sure you have this one on your races for 2010!!!!! One thing is that I was in the 30-34 age group, when in reality I turn 35 this year, so should have been in the 35-39 age group. Not sure why I was in the younger age group.

  • Comments: The KC triathlon was great. I'll be back. My only issue would be a lack of info about the race ahead of time. It would have been great to have info on aid stations(locations and drinks). Also info on parking and the layout for the swim course would have been nice.

  • Comments: First year for this race and it was absolutely flawless! These guys are goooooood... thank god for a new organization putting on quality races in this area. Soooo many volunteers, plenty of drink stations, superbly-marked bike and run course... what more could you ask for? There was even TONS of beer at the awards ceremony. You know how it usually runs out? I saw them re-loading the ice bins towards the END of the awards ceremony. Now, I didn't drink any but that is some good thinking. Even the awards ceremony had a level of energy I haven't seen at a local race in a long time. Very cool. I HIGHLY recommend!!! Great job Ryan and staff!

  • Comments: Innaugural KC Triathlon - they did a great job. TONS of volunteers on the swim, bike, and run courses, and they were very supportive. I would do this race next year and definitely recommend it to friends.
