  • Comments: I love this race and can only hope to be in it for the next 20 years+. Overall, I was thrilled with my results. I took over 7 minutes off my much improved time from last year. My swim training with RMST is like gold. I now have the confidence to get back into open water this Fall. My Reston Sprint 2011 will be all about improvement on the run!

  • Comments: Not my best race but my age group had almost nobody in it, so I won my age group! This doesn't happen often to me (only second time) and I've won my age group as often as I've placed in my age group...in fact I've never gotten 2nd or 3rd. I almost always just miss out on the awards so it was nice to bring home some hardware myself as my wife seems to always win her age group. Very cool, but definitely not my best race. Would do it again and would make for a great revenge race next year as my run split was off about 4 minutes from my last race. Either way, Success! The race was very well run and I would definitely recommend it to others. Great race to do your first triathlon but also had some very fast locals.

  • Comments: After the race I was chatting with Greg again, and another guy about our age came up to congratulate him on the race. He looked kind of familiar, and I saw that he had a '41' on his calf - could it be 'the other Jeff Davis'? Yes - it was!!! So, I finally got to meet him, and as we shook hands there was no matter-anti matter annihilation as I thought might happen! All kidding aside, we chatted a bit, talking about the race and the fact that my kids used to go to his practice. It turned out he and Greg grew up together. After a bit we saw that they had posted the first set of times. 'The other Jeff Davis' (that's what he calls me too!) and I were #3 and #4 in our age group. I thought for a minute - wouldn't it be funny if we had been one and two? I was pleased that I came close to placing, but I didn't really think that I would. Having seen my time, I decided to take off and not stick around for the award ceremony, as last year it dragged on and on. Boy do I regret that

  • Comments: Great race! Thank you for moving the food from the finish line. The course tweaks in the pool and the finish line were great. For my abilities, this is a hard course but I took 7 minutes off my time from last year!
