  • Comments: This race was MUCH better than last year! No tearing down the course before people were done and lots of action around the finishline. This year they had a sprint race too. The sprint went before the 1/2 on the swim. I think it probably would be better to have the sprint start after the half as I didnt get on the roads until almost 9 am and the roads were heavily trafficed on the second loop.If the 1/2 went first ( an hour earlier) there would probably be less traffic.

  • Comments: Should have raced Clyde as I would have finished 3rd :) Although I started at 201 and ended at 196 so I was right on the borderline. Was a bit disturbed that cops and volunteers were absent from the final major road crossing on the curve pre-finish by time I got there. Only 6 hours into race still half the field coming in behind me. Other than that volunteers and course markings were all great.

  • Comments: Aid stations were plentiful, but they could have used more volunteers at them. Another 2-3 people would have been nice. Thankfully on the run I was alone and could yell what I wanted as I approached. Good race, but stretch vs massage? Ice bath was nice.

  • Comments: We needed some sprayers and sponges on the run course. There was no relief. Some water had ice in it which I could not stomach. But the volunteers were the best.

  • Comments: Good race. Came in first for Athena but was 90 minutes ahead of the 2nd place Athena. Its no fun to win when you're clubbing baby seals. Would have placed 4/26 if I raced AG (30-34). Think that if I want to "race" I made need to register as AG but its a hard call because I like tchotchkies.

  • Comments: They made alot of improvements this year...I came in at almost 7 hours and there were still lots of people hanging around at the end cheering people on. The volunteers were hands down AWESOME!!! Saw Kathy's girls a few times!
