  • Comments: I am used to Dallas Athletes putting on top-notch events. I was very disappointed about the fact that there were no timing chips at this event. I realize that there were only 125 registered, but I paid the same price that I do for all other DA events. The fact that there were no chips made it seem like this race was not as important as say Disco or Texas Man. The chip issue also caused confusion when it came time for awards. First, they did all the AG and that was it. We had to ask about Athena. Then, they came back with a list of 3 names but no times. I had to ask what those times were since I knew both Laurie and I had really good times. Come to find out, that the people who they said took 1-3 in Athena finished a good 10 minutes after laurie and I. I ended up 3rd, and got my medal, only because I had to go make them manually check the times. If there were chips, this would have been automatic. Other than that, it was a good race and a PR for me. This is the third time

  • Comments: This race was definitely one of my best. After 11 tri's, I can walk away from this one saying that even though my physical abilities can definitely improve with more training, my mental and physical efforts were equal and couldn't have been better. I pushed and my body repsonded and I met my race goal...PR'd the whole thing! WOOT!!! Can't ask for too much more than that.
