  • Comments: This was a pretty cool race to do as a first Tri. I had a ton of fun & will be back. Cold weather was an issue. Esp going from an 85 deg pool to a 50 deg windy bike course!

  • Comments: I liked it, however I'll check the weather report before I sign up for this race again. It's hit or miss, last year it was high 60's so it was nice and the race starts at 10am in efforts to allow it to warm up... but not this year!!! it was cold all day.

  • Comments: I was 1 min. and 5 secs. slower than last year (my very first tri). I was hoping to improve the time but w/ the conditions it would be comparing apples to oranges. Overall, I'm pretty satisfied.

  • Comments: This is my first race so don't have anything to compare it to. Over all I think it will serve as a good baseline for future races. I ranked higher then I expected. At the same time I have found areas that I am going to have to focus on in the futre to inprove my race performance.

  • Comments: The race was great and it was good to find out what I need to work on before the Patriots Half. We left early cause I didn't think I was fast enough to place in my age group but later found out that I got second. Can't tell you how mad I am at myself for not sticking around.

  • Comments: I did about what I had expected on the swim, the bike, and the run. The transitions took much longer than I thought they would. The race was well organized and staffed adequately. They did, however, run out of the advertised "all you can eat barbeque" so I didn't get any.

  • Comments: My first race effort. Short-comings in my preparation for it were evident but my mindset going in was just to finish the race and learn from the experience. Now that I have established some times I have marks to improve on the next time out. Event seemed well organized and I had a good time.

  • Comments: For my first race, I suppose I didn't do too bad. I was disappointed in all my times but the weather did play a factor. The bottom line is that I can now say that I'm a triathlete!

  • Comments: For an inaugural event, I was impressed with it. They managed an early season race, in a pool with 260 racers. Very good stuff. Plus the food was YUMMY!!! The most exciting part is that I was the first Non-Elite to finish! How cool is that? And I beat 2 Elite Males too. Let's just hope it's not a flash in the pan.

  • Comments: Great way to start the 2007 race season and my triathlon career :) Going to have to work out moving faster in the transition area. Enjoyable first experience. Happy with a top 5 place in my age group.

  • Comments: Course was WELL marked on the streets, and turns were also staffed with volunteers. Very helpful. Since this was the first Triathlon in Smithfield, I wondered if it would have some glitches, be unorganized, etc. But everything was great -- easy for athletes, good food, plenty of volunteers. Weather was perfect tri weather -- I was very grateful...it could've been ugly like the week before!
