  • Comments: This is a great low key race that is very well organized. Perfect for a first race and if (like me) you just want to go really fast and test yourself. Great Job Racine!!!

  • Comments: Pretty awesome little race. Well run and on time, and really organized. A bit farther than I like to travel, but it was pretty awesome little race. I will definitely consider it for next year.

  • Comments: This is another good, low-key race put on by Racine Multisports. My first multisport race was one of their fall duathlons, and my daughter loves to do their kids' du. Nothing fancy: no lavish food, entertainment, or prizes. But the essentials all work very well. The focus is on regular folks, and that makes these events very beginner friendly. A nice touch was that during the awards ceremony, when a few final competitors were still coming to the line, it was clear that announcing each of those finishers by name as they approached the line took priority over the awards. I like that.

  • Comments: Good race, well-organized on the whole. Not a personal best for me, but that's because I didn't train very hard. Post-race food options were limited compared to last time.

  • Comments: As always a great race. Super beginner friendly. I will keep coming back! And woo hoo for chip timing. And putting your age standing on the overall list as times go up. Why can't Set Up Events figure this out?

  • Comments: Disapointed in myself, this is one of my good chances where I can compete for AG podium and I blew it. Only good part of the race for me was Sam win her AG and Karla won hers, plus got to meet Terps there. Ken puts on a good race, it has everything from people that finish in 50 minutes to 2 ladies who finished in 4:30.

  • Comments: Hot and Humid at start and got worse as it went on. Only drank 1/2 water bottle on bike because I'm stupid. Cramped 1/2 mile into the run. Struggled and it generally sucked. Ran well the last 1/2 mile, not necessarily tired or winded, just cramped.

  • Comments: This race was a lot of fun in spite of the weather! It is a good place to get started or to train through a race. The organizers did a great job relative to the size of the event. Even though it took a long time to get everyone through the swim, it was nice to only have to share a lane with one other person. Having chip timing next year and hopefully splits with the results will be a nice improvement, but I would highly recommend this race.

  • Comments: The following are comments I made to my club about the race after it was done: I stuck around the finish area and see George, club member Jason, and Herb Spicer finish. We all talked for some time and clapped for others finishing. Talk to club member Dan Pfeil who was here for support. I then walked over to the pool area as there were still many others who had yet to start the race. Checked out the numbers on folks and found a new friend I recently met online via BeginnerTriathlete.com. Her name is Linda (or online Terps421). It was great to again meet someone you just exchange messages with. From her logs, she's a good distance runner, does weight training, and is improving her swim and cycling abilities. So, we discussed tris, the race, the Frederick Tri Club, cycling, and where she lived. Turns out Boonsboro, so we'll have to get together for some rides as I have a few routes I like to do there. And looking post race at the BT website, which has a section devoted to discussing

  • Comments: Ken was a little short on volunteers this year. It was pouring down rain in the AM. I was standing on the pool deck w/ sheets of rain coming down. However, it's a great course and he is a great guy. I look forward to returning and hoping Drew can participate in the kids tri soon.

  • Comments: I have to give this race a 5. It was my first and can never be beat. I had a great time. The volunteers were helpful and friendly. The racers were the same. I felt like I left what I had on the course that day. Although there are many places where I have room for improvement, I couldn't be happier about how I did. Fourth in my age group (out of 19) isn't so bad for a newbie!

  • Comments: This is a great race. It started late and had a lack of volunteers due to the stormy weather. As the awards ceremony began (6hrs . after the race started), the last female finisher was walking by. The RD asked for us to applaud her. When we did, she started running, and ran about 300 yds. to the finish line with lots of applause. That was Inspiring!! I had so much fun at this race.
