  • Comments: This is my first race with the group. I was not impressed with the support they had to get body marking done, and race packets handed out. They may do better other times, but this one was pretty crummy. I am making an assumption that they NORMALLY do better, since the RD said they close the transiton at 6:30 sharp. So I am not sure why that did not happen. I am guessing it was lack of help to get the lines processed, or maybe lack or being orgainized. They had a LOT of people that picked up packets, and it sure seemed like they could have done better. They had most of the numbers stacked, so they had to go through 3 sets of numbers to get all of them. I would have thought they would have done that prior and then you would only need the out side of the bag numbered... but that is another story.

  • Comments: I thought they did a good job, swim start was a little slow, but not too bad, they did move people through pretty quickly. Don't know what's up with the timing. My age group results look differnt from the overall results, although both have the same final time...so something is going on there. Other than that, good race. I'll do it again next year!
