  • Comments: Missed an AG award though I was 7th overall out of 150 or so women. Wouldn't you know the 4th, 5th and 6th place girls were all in my AG. To make matter's worse, the 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th (me) place were all separated by less than a minute. I didn't realize any of the girls were that close or I might have found a little tiny bit more for that run. My first race with no AG or overall award, but still a course PR for me.

  • Comments: A well put on event. Everything started on time and the results were up quickly. Looked like there was plenty of food available at the finish as well. I would do another race by element events.

  • Comments: I didn't like the start of the bike--it was hard getting started on the grass. Plus, the entire bystander area was really confusing, and it was hard for our "fans" to see us!

  • Comments: Jim Jackson with Element Events does a great job with his races. He's a local guy. His father even comes out to help at most events (I talked to George for quite a while after the race). Island Lake is a great venue and Element Events does a nice job. I had a great time and will continue to sign up for Element Event races.

  • Comments: Got there 1.5hrs ahead. Perfect timing. Gave me enough time to register, setup, use the head, etc and still not be frantic.

  • Comments: Race was good, they were organized running events. took a little bit for them to do trophies. This was a smaller race, 163 people overall. This was my first event with this race organization, I was really impressed. They had their stuff together. I will definetly race with them again.

  • Comments: It was great except I would have done the following differently... 1) brighter swim caps. Black and blue are hard to see. 2) space the men/women waves further apart. The fast women swam into to slow men which was annoying. The swim is my best leg of the race and I NEED that advantage. I'd like not to be swimming into the back of the slow men. 3) work out the run and/or bike so that they are not loops or out and back... boring.
