  • Overall course based on my ability: Too hard

  • Comments: This was my first race so I have nothing to compare it too. My goal was just to finish. I did have mental times I wanted to accomplish. I did better than anticipated on the swim. I did as expected on the bike and did worse on the run. I was super inspired and impressed to see people in their 70's racing. The fact that I completed this in less than desirable conditions makes me proud of the accomplishment. I never once thought of quitting. I willd o this again because I want to finish strong. I want to run my entire distance, Iwant to swim without breaks (from letting people pass me at the wall) or swimming on my back. And I want to be much stronger on the bike. The people who raced it and volunteered it where great and even though I was in the BOP I felt equally as taken care of and cheered on as the person who won it. My training log use to say, "One day I will call myself a triathlete" . Today, I will change it to "I did it! I'm a triathlete"

  • Comments: I liked the race. Good course. I was hoping to podium for the first time today, but I had the toughest AG. I gave it everything I had but my transitions cost me 2 spots in my AG. Oh well, something to learn from as I move forward.

  • Comments: Despite his hard-headed reputation, Jack puts on a good event at Benbrook. Could have used more portajohns and TP, but when alerted, more paper was provided. You just have to be used to the bare-bones post race food, although bagels would have been nice.

  • Comments: Waited around for the awards as I wanted to watch my dad get his award. I had also originally thought I came in 3rd in my AG as that was how it was posted, then a late entry person who was at the end finished and bumped me to 4th. Somehow I still got hardware, I think it had something to do with the fact that my trainer was giving out the awards and the other person she knew. It was a fun race and I was pleased to knock off five minutes from my time on the course last year, plus an overall PR!

  • Comments: Ironhead always puts on a good, predictable race with the distances dead on for each of the legs. The Brooks tech event shirt was a real nice touch as well. Could have had more post race food than oranges, bananas, & bagels.

  • Comments: I really had a fun time doing this race. Being my first Tri, I feel pretty good about my results. I achieved my goals, and I'm pleased with that. I do know now what I need to focus on in my training. Hopefully, I'll improve on my next race and get stronger! YIPPEE!!!
