  • Comments: I like this race - have done 2 olys and a sprint here now, and every one has been well-organized, with an enthusiastic team of organizers and volunteers. Thanks to everybody who lends their time to make it go so well. I even liked the band better this time, a change from my curmudgeonly feedback last time. Only thing I would change - please publish age group rankings for the splits in the results. Cool Running doesn't let you see those or download the results into a chart to let you do it yourself. That small thing aside - I would very much recommend this race.

  • Comments: Great race. Good spread of food, even though my stomach rebelled and I only managed two bites of chicken and a couple of pieces of lettuce. it smelled good, and my wife said, the chicken was good. the ice cold coke was delicious.

  • Comments: Cranberry is a great race. I think it is still good but a bit less than in the past. Post race cookout wasnt as festive or plentiful as past.

  • Comments: I so love this race. You know it is good when DK show up on race day to volunteer, and they do not need it. We had such a great time that DK and I actually helped out for the kids race on Sat, after we had raced our sprint. So happy I did this and hope to get the band back together next year. To add to all of the other great things about today's race, I was actually faster this year on the oly than 2 years ago by over 5 minutes!!!!!

  • Comments: Great first Olympic distance tri. Would have liked a real dessert instead of cornbread, but another great event put on by Sun Multisports

  • Comments: The swim start was delayed 15 minutes because it was so foggy you couldn't see the swim buoys, but it was a good decision and by the time we started it was nice and clear. Overall a very nice race.

  • Comments: Great event! I see why it sells out every year. Very, very organized, great race management and volunteers. Post race activies included meals for races (olympic distance), a live band, ect. My wife did the sprint on sat and I raced the olympic distance on sunday. Nice for each of us to bring our kids out, have some fun and watch their parents race. My oldest is bothering me about doing the kids duathlon next year...maybe? If we do this again next year, my oldest son may do the kids duathlon. Great family involved weekend. Event location had a smaller park for the kids to burn off some energy, a skate park and some wide open soccer field to run thru. Would definately do this race again.

  • Comments: I really enjoyed this race. It was exceptionally well organzined and well0-supported - they even had a 14 page race info booklet that was very informative. They assigned rack numbers for each transition space, which I think EVERY race MUST do because people can be idiots. The course itself was simple to execute and well directed. The pre-race info was just enough. Also, TONS of porta potties - KEY!!! I would recommend this race to anyone, and would definitely do another Sun Multisport event.

  • Comments: Race was well-organized. It attracts a serious crowd, so for relative newbies like me, you're going to be lower-placed than in some other races. Bike course and run courses are great. Swim feels long. Food after was okay, but not outstanding. Not much in the way of refueling materials for immediately after the race. It was nice to have the band, but it was a little loud for me (tough to have a conversation over lunch) Sorry if that makes me seem old, but maybe that's just what Tris in general do for you...
