• Comments: This is a great race and very well run. The race bag had lots of good stuff including great race tech shirt and beer mug. The pancakes were good and award plaques were the best I have seen. That swim course needs to be revised so there is not a turn buoy 50 yards from the start. Very good and challenging race.

• Comments: Absolutely loved this race. Wish I had done better in it, but happy with overall outcome and effort level. Standing by the fire after the race watching the volunteers flipping pancakes and being so friendly made me realize why I race triathlons. It was just a great, warm feeling. This is a really, really challenging course from the cold water to the constant hills on the run. It is what a triathlon is supposed to be. I can easily see why this race was selected as the region's special qualifier for Tuscaloosa. It is fantastic. If they can work out a way to more clearly mark the run course, it will be perfect.

• Comments: This was a well run race. The water was cold but clean and beautiful. The roads were a little rough but well marked and staffed with volunteers. The run was a crazy, challenging mess. It may not have been fun while the race was in progress but somehow I still came out of there feeling like I had a blast - bad race and all. I'm already ready to take my revenge on this course next year.
