Race rating (3)

Comments: I have done some other races that have had alot better post race activities. Alot of people left the race site before the awards since it was misting/raining. I stuck around because I needed to get my boat out of the water. I was hoping to win the bike, but I didn't win. I would do this race again, and will be looking at doing some Olympic length events next year. My sister is talking about doing a Half Ironman next year. I may join her.

Comments: Overall this race was a success since the goal was to finish, and I did. I also finished in under 3 hours, which was nice. I was worried I'd be DFL, but I wasn't, although I was close in my AG. :) It's funny that last week I was thrilled to be 4th in my AG (out of 15), and this week 5th (out of 7) is kind of disappointing. But hey, I finished, and I'm glad for that! I really wish it had been a more pleasant day from a weather standpoint, but what can you do? At least it really kept me from overheating, right? There were 700+ people in this race, but only 117 did the long course. So most of the racers and spectators were long gone by the time some of us slower long course people finished, and that was a new experience for me. Not that anyone can blame people for leaving, especially given the weather, but I'm just not used to it being so deserted at the end of a race. Maybe I was just really noticing it because none of my family was there. :( Anyway, it was a pretty good race overall.

Comments: The race was good, but the pre/post activities were lacking. Also, there was limited food/snacks during the running part. Also, the T-Shirt was belowed expectations in terms of quality.
