  • Post race activities? Bad
  • Overall course based on my ability: Too hard

  • Comments: Needs better recovery food. Green bananas, oranges, sweet bages, pizza, and water were it. Water at aid stations should be in paper cups to fold for easy drinking. Good local race. Loved the free gloves they gave out

  • Comments: The event was nice. The expo was good. They could've been more organized with handing out water at the finish. They should have organized the food better where you didn't have to get in a long line just to get it. I was blown away that they were actually offering perfectly GREEN bananas. Garbage!

  • Events on time?Yes

  • Lots of volunteers to help?Yes
  • Plenty of drink stations?Yes

  • Post race activities? Below average
  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: The flow of the finish chute wasn't logical at all, and I couldn't find anything to drink other than water or chocolate milk. I NEEDED Powerade/Gatorade or something like that, and a COKE, but didn't locate those. The post-race meal was pizza or oranges or banana, a far cry from the smorgasbord we're used to in the tri-world!
