  • Comments: This is my first time placing in an individual athletic event! What's even more cool is my wife placed second in her division too. Of course I stayed a long time, but left after the awards as our family was expecting us and they drew my number for the garmin. Argh. Stay 'til the end!

  • Comments: A little short of volunteers at some key points on the bike--the sheriff just getting to a dangerous corner in Augusta when I got there--needed more than a volunteer there. Another dangerous turn after Creative Memories, over the 94 bridge. Some ass in a car didn't want to slow down and wait for the bikes. On the run, one water station for coming and going; at first pass no one had water to hand off so I had to wait; on second pass, they gave me about 1/4 cup of water--were they running out? Not enough volunteers there --only 3--so slow to hand out. They ran out of water before the last runner came in at the end. It was a hot day and needed to have enough water. Amazing post race door prizes from Rev and Endurunce--basically getting a $100 gps watch paid for the race and then some. Small field bc Lifetime and TImberman were the same day--no female elites at all. Needs more volunteers. Better safety now that the run has been moved off the road it was on, even though I don't like
