  • Comments: The race was a lot of fun and well organized for a fun event. The only shortcoming was a shortage of volunteers. The volunteers that they had were great and did all they could to help us.

  • Comments: Up to this point I've always been fairly happy with the races I've done...but there's first for everything. The Good: The backdrop to the course is quite nice. Cultus Lake is a nice place for a race. The water was warm and clean. The post race pizza was top notch too. The Bad: The most obvious peeve I have is the short run. I'm not talking about a couple hundred meters short, I'm talking about a full 2k+ short. Total BS. One of my goals since I started triathlon in 2008 was to run a sub 40m 10k in a race. I knew I could have done it this year and I feel cheated out of a major goal of mine and have to wait until next year now. I'm also quite positive I could have gained 1 or 2 more overall positions in the final 2k. Also, the swim was long by at least 100m. I have no doubt. So they lengthen my worst sport and shorten my best. Not impressed. To further add some insult, my friend who raced the whole race somehow doesn't show up on the results...WTH?!?! He figured he'd be

  • Comments: The race was super well organized. I would do it again. The water was very cold, and all 3 segments were too short.
