  • Comments: This is a great race for the amount of money for the entry fee. It's very organized and perfect for someone's first triathlon and also a nice race to use as a workout. The transition area was different this year along with the bike course. It was actually a much better change. They should look at doing this again next year. I highly recommend this race to anyone wanting to do a triathlon.

  • Comments: It was better than the Spring Tri as far as organization is concerned. They did alot of things in relation to the course as well to make it challenging and keep the traffic moving. I think they just needed more volunteers but with the way the weather was, they probably did the best they could. All in all, it was a good race and will do this again as it will fit in well when I gratuate to the Oly. distance next season.

  • Comments: Lots of volunteers. Courses well marked. Officers at every intersection. Don't have a lot to compare this to, but thought it was ran very well.

  • Comments: There could have been more water stations on the run course and ankle timing chips would have been nice so we could get better split times, but overall the race was very well organized the volunteers were great and I have a hard time thinking of anything to negative to say about the race. Oh, although I heard they didn't adjust bike times for train delays and that's just silly--it wouldn't be hard to put one person there to record race numbers and how long people were delayed. At any rate, race was great and I'd recommend it!

  • Comments: I was disappointed in the finish line this year... but it's understandable with the construction. I would've liked more sportsdrink on the run.

  • Comments: I had a lot of fun for my first triathlon. I achieved my goal of finishing without walking on the run and completing it under 2:30. The weather was awesome.

  • Comments: I think this was a great venue. The pool was great, TA was nice and big, and the bike course was flat and fast. The run course was great in places, definately safe, but the unlevel parts of the trail and the cambered city street took a toll on my body. So, for me individually, the run course wasn't perfect, but overall it was a very good course. I did see a few people cutting some corners on the run, and I also saw several gel packages on the bike course. That's just not cool. I definately didn't finish in the top half of my AG, but considering I wasn't sure I could do more than the swim as recent as 10 days ago, I feel ok with my race. I'm glad my wife did this with me. It was fun to train together and we have plans to do this race again next June. I tried to thank every volunteer on the course, but I know I missed a few. I think getsome made a good point when he said that he had raced all summer and now it was his turn to volunteer. Kudos to him and everyone else. Motivational
