  • Comments: Overall this was a good experience. My only frustration was pre-race communication. It seems that the water temp situation is the number one question for the majority of races, so more info would have been nice. For the second race this season I had to learn the water temp from a co-racer, which isn't right. In general I felt left in the dark. I would have known even less had I not "liked" the race on Facebook, which is too bad for those not on Facebook...

  • Comments: After going to Lifetime, where I ran into a lifeguard every 50 yards, here they were very sparse out on the course. I wasn't likely to be a person who was going to need one, but that could have been bad. Also, the water stations on the run seemed somewhat sparsely populated. Aside from the waves starting 5-6 minutes late (which really there is no excuse for), I thought it was pretty well organized. We'll definitely be back next year, hopefully with my wife tri'ing too!
