  • Comments: The perfect length for a first timer but the lake conditions will keep me from coming back to this event. In total I probably could have shaved off 4-4:30 if I was healthy- but who is ever 100% healthy. The event was run extremely well- can't wait until my next race.

  • Comments: Another solid DQ race. Although the lake bottom's greasy squishiness was kind of disgusting, I still like this race because the water is shallow enough it eliminates the fear and worry lake swimming can generate, as at NJ State a couple of weeks ago. Can definitely see myself doing this one again. TSW said, "If I ever get up the courage to try one of these, this is the one I'll do."

  • Comments: Very good event. Small and nice area. Not crazy about the lake. The bottom was gross. Don't think I"ll be doing this again.

  • Comments: The race is much appreciated. The conditions were absolutely horrible today. The water was a slimy brown that stuck even through heavy rains. The roads were flooded from torrential downpours, making the course somewhat dangerous. Wort of all, the dirt running path became a small stream with two to six inches of water. My feet at times sunk about three inches into the mud. Still, I'm glad the race went on and much credit to the organizers and volunteers for putting on a good race despite the conditions.

  • Comments: Would consider doing it again next season - even with the muddy, brackish water. Fast bike course and really nice run course. Plus DQ always runs a nice event.

  • Comments: I really like this race. It isn't the fanciest or most intense of races, but it is well-put together and a lot of fun. The course is very nice, despite the brown lake. It's a race that I plan on keeping on my schedule every year. This year I guess it just fell at a bad time for me.
