• Comments: this was the first year of this race. i was skeptical of the 3 loop bike course, but looking back i really liked it. the run was challenging, but good as well and the swim was perhaps the best run pool swim i have ever seen. lots of good give-aways, good location, and well run race. they even had a massage tent. problems: - packet pickup: only sat.12-4. extremely inconvenient not to offer a fri. option or race day option. we are pretty local and it caused a lot of problems. i feel bad for people traveling. - transition area: bike in/bike out should not be the same. i know it's minor, but it's a pet peeve. - bike course: pretty sure it was short.

• Comments: Dont have any comparisons but seemed very well run. Had a little trouble figuring out run course a couple of times. Overall, I had fun and would do it again.

• Comments: This was the first year for this race and it was fairly well run. Positives: Lots of volunteers Nice wicking L/S shirt Started on time Organized swim (actually had a 2 minute break every 40 people to spread out the masses) Negatives: Packet pickup was only yesterday for 4 hours mid afternoon 3 loops of the bike was a little boring, but then again the race site was in a busy, residential area...so I understand I'd do this race again!
