Race rating (4)

Organised?Yes
Events on time?Yes

Lots of volunteers to help?Yes
Plenty of drink stations?Yes

Post race activities? Good
Overall course based on my ability: Just right

Comments: Would have given it a five, but was disappointed that they would combine mens and womans classes for medals...then after speaking with one of the race coordinators, he stated this was a mistake and they would be mailing out the other medals to all the woman who placed... Would have been nice to get mine there, but I am still very happy to have placed 3rd in the 50-59 age group. Was told there were over 10 woman in my class and they thought more like 15. I was so happy with a finishing medal...and just received a call from the City of Moraga and they informed me my medal will be coming to me in the mail! I am now ecstatic! THANKS DOROTHY! none of this would be possible if you did not inspire me to get off that couch...quit smoking and to lose all this weight!!

Comments: It's a fun race, and local, which makes it even better. The start is always well organized, and it's a good course. The awards at the end could be handled better, especially since this year, for some reason, they were combining the women and men, but all in all a very fun low pressure race. Highly recommended.

Overall course based on my ability: Just right

Comments: If you're looking for a great first-timer's Sprint, or just an early season tune-up, this is a great little race. But don't expect any timing chip or mats, everything was old-fashioned manual/analog. Record your own splits, because you'll only get an Overall Time. Great atmosphere and very supportive crowd.

Overall course based on my ability: Too easy

Comments: Excellent local race. The race director ran the pre-race run through the week before and was friendly during race day. The only reason that I'm not giving this a 5 is that it wasn't as seamless as a TriCalifornia event. I would recommend this to all.
