  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: Overall, I like the tri-family races. My only complaint is that they call this a Mini (250 yrd, 9.5 miles, 2 miles) but they also call the Seville race a Mini (150 yrd, 10.4 miles, .5 mile) but the Maxi at Seville is 300 yrd, 15.4, 2 mile. I wish it was more consistant for the distances.

  • Overall course based on my ability: Too easy

  • Comments: Overall it was probably the best race I could have chosen for my first Tri. It was an easy course, one that I could have pushed myself on without fear of major injury, the water was warm, the road was flat, and the weather was cool (Okay, I froze my a** off at 6:30 in the morning, but I wouldn't trade it for the world). I also stuck around afterwards through all of the awards presentations and managed to score myself a big tub of "Heed" (Electrolyte powder drink stuff) from Hammer, and an extra t-shirt. My buddy paul got a $50 gift card to Landis Sports. To anyone looking for a good first tri, this one is perfect. It's shorter than most sprints, and everyone is very helpful and friendly, even the race coordinator himself was out on the course cheering us on as we passed by.

  • Comments: get the awards done so that people can go home or out to eat.. way too drawn out 2.5 hours after finishing i finally get my award and go home. Lots of givaways by way of just random numbers... but that got old quickly.

  • Comments: Tri Family racing usually puts on a good race. I don't like how they have drawings at the end for free stuff. He just calls out numbers, and he usually calls the same numbers over and over. Grrrrrrrr This time the timing was messed up. Not sure what went on, but seems like they had problems.

  • Comments: Dont like pool swims and laps around the city, that why it didnt get a four or five in my book. Not after completing other races. However if I had to just chose pool races it was a 3.5. The run was short. Good for the foot though.
