Event comments:

Expertly organized event. Upon arrival, there were ambassadors guiding inexperienced athletes through check in and helping with transition setup. The swim was started in waves with 7 or 8 groups sorted by age/abiility, so that there was very little contact with other swimmers. A novice group went last. Many sighting buoys on the water, as well as a surplus of rescue kayaks and jetskis. The bike course went through rolling hills with few turns, finishing with a downhill. The run was scenic, shaded, and pretty flat. At the finish, the announcer recognized athletes well into the middle of the pack finishers. Ambassadors provided a cool washcloth and celebratory high-5. Coupon for a pizza from the on-site mobile Papa John pizza truck, too.
Overall great experience. I recommend the Virginia Maryland Triathlon Series highly.
