  • Comments: Too early in the season to avoid running into cold rain and wind. But nice not to have to wait so long for first tri of the year. I live in Keller so I am real familiar with the pool, bike and run courses. Love it. If I had had to drive an hour to compete in adverse conditions I may have skipped this one...but probably not! ;)

  • Comments: Besides messing my Time up it was a great race. I had to leave after the race and saw they forgot to take the time from the 1st swimmer entered the water and I started. My swim time said 17 min swim. LOL... Come on now... Not sure if they fixed it or not. I sent a email. I hope to hear back.

  • Comments: I loved the pancakes, but it was too cold to stick around for much else. I was shivering badly :(. I'm happy with the Event and hope that I get to do it again next year, albeit prepared for the awful weather and with more training. I also would love to train with a group next time---I think I did well for having self-trained, but I want to see how I do if I train with others.

  • Comments: Really happy I did this race; now any other will have better weather conditions and I'll know more about what to expect. The people were really nice and helpful and seeing a runner with a big green wig just makes me smile.

  • Comments: Overall... I think the race itself was well run, and one of the better DA managed events I've been to. Especially considering the weather. Some say that the weather affected folks evenly, but I feel some used it to their advantage by HTFUing through the race in minimal clothes. I thought they were nuts though.
