Comments:

The pool was terribly congested and slowed everyone down after the first few swimmers.
What would you do differently?:

Change it to a swim, bike run format.

Comments:

The course was marked with orange cones in a residential area. There was construction going on and they were also using orange cones. Many people including me missed a turn and rode extra miles. 1.5 extra for me. The road needed to be painted with arrows to show the way better.
What would you do differently?:

Recommended to the race director to paint the roads for people who came from out of town and didn't know the course.

Event comments:

They did ok for a 2nd year effort. It's a nice place to hold one they just need to realize not everyone knows the course. There is also really no reason to cause such congestion in the pool by having it run in reverse order. Swimmers can start in intervals and prevent almost all of that.
Also, timing was done by stopwatch with start and finish times only--no split times for the different legs.
