  • Lots of volunteers to help?No
  • Plenty of drink stations?No

  • Post race activities? Bad
  • Overall course based on my ability: Too hard

  • Comments: This was to date the worst organized triathlon I've ever done, granted I did pretty well in it, so I will have a bit of a good spot in my heart for it, still, the kids were writing their shit down on a legal pad! A legal Pad?! No computers, results not up for a week in entirety. Glad I'm moving back to Charlotte so I won't be tempted to do this race again!

  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: The race started 30 minutes late and was pretty disorganized. There also was no water or food at the finish line when I finished. But since it's a school fundraiser, it's to be expected. Still had a blast and a great race to start off a season with.

  • Overall course based on my ability: Too easy

  • Comments: Was good, but it didn't start on time - which confused a lot of people. The times were being entered into their database as they came in hand written, so it was difficult to get splits. They are supposed to be available today on the website, but I haven't seen them. I was able to get a very quick glimpse of my overall time before I left while the student was still entering data into his computer. The guys singing during/at the end of the race was just aweful... Could have done without the Frank Sinatra impersonator type.
