  • Comments: It sucked not getting to do my first Olympic Triathlon after putting in a lot of work in the off season in preparation for it, but it turned out to be a beautiful sunny day and I had a good time and managed to surprise myself with a great run.

  • Comments: This was a very organized race that EndorFun put on. The pre-race meeting was very informative. The volunteers and spectators were very encouraging throughout the entire race. The bike ride was protected from street traffic. Nice looking Techinical T and cap. I would definitely do this race again. Maybe next year, I will try doing the double. Finally, Kudos to EndorFun for coming back and giving Galveston a chance to host the event. The economic impact of having an event like this will surely help Galveston rebuild.

  • Comments: I really like End or Fun, they put on a great race. But I won't do this race again. I really disliked the bike course, I got very bored with it. In fact, during the 2nd half of the bike ride all I could think is, I'm glad Dad and I are doing Vancouver this time next year, gives me a good excuse to not sign up for this race in '09. I'm not sure I would do an early season race again because of the allergy thing. And I really hated the wetsuit so I'd rather wait for the water to warm up next year. I'm really glad I did it and I'm really proud of my performance given my horrible start, but I probably will skip this race next year.

  • Comments: I hit the low end of all of my target times/estimates and didn't run into any of the problems that I did with my first triathlon. I am extremely happy with my race and am proud to say that I wouldn't have done anything differently in hindsight.

  • Comments: The only reason I give this race a four is because I freakin hate the run course. AWESOME post race and bike course. Everything is really organized except for the mile markers on the run course. Overall its a solid race and great for an early year OWS.

  • Comments: This being my 3rd tri was also my longest. It was also my longest run ever. My goal was to try to finish in 3:30 and beat it by 4 minutes. So was happy with the overall race.

  • Comments: This race was as good as last year's, and probably better since we got great weather. The volunteers were tremendous, and everything went smoothly. The whole course had tons of nutritional support, and it was all well marked. You couldn't ask for a better race.

  • Comments: Keith Jordan did an amazing job. This was so well organized that I know we were spoiled!! Things like individually numbered bike racks, the sponges, the wet suit strippers, the announcing, the post race activities, give aways, the sponsors, and overall atmosphere was absolutely top-notch. Makes me want to travel to NE for some of their races sometime, and VERY GLAD that Longhorn 70.3 is put on by them. I had a blast at this race, but it was probably one of the toughest total things I've ever done. Using different muscles made me feel more physically depleted and that weird pain we all somewhat savor was more than I felt after the marathon. My friend Joe told me that means I didn't run the marathon hard enough, haha! I jus think it means I have more work to do in the three sports all together, more bricks, longer swims. I realize how much I need to do in order to be in tip-top shape for the Longhorn HIM. Not sure if I'll do Lonestar next year--not that I don't want to--I just will be

  • Comments: I raced the Sprint on Saturday as well so I got to participate for the entire weekend. EndorFun is fantastic. Their volunteers were high energy and organized. They definitely created an atmosphere for the weekend that was fun and made you feel special. They were very responsive before the race and easy to work with. I registered for the Mooseman HIM not knowing it was the same organization, so I am even more excited to race
