  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: Definitely needed some garbages. This race is growing in popularity. I think it doubled its entries this year. Changed venues and has made it less intimidating for the swim. Will do it again next year.

  • Comments: Pros: Decent venue for the race, good to have a ND race too. Small, friendly event. Had rest rooms available. Enough parking apace. Plenty of water. Fruit/granola available post race. Cons: Didn't know what was going on post race. Looks like they had some medals/awards but must have missed them while I was loading up the bike and hanging out with my family ... as I came back to the table where the times were and seemed like several of the medals were gone and most people had dispersed. No trash cans around. No dressing area. Could use PA system to help communicate information, results, and maybe announce finishers.

  • Comments: Lots of beginners at race. Course well marked by Dennis K of Frontier Precision, http://www.frontierprecision.com/, Course well sheltered & flat. Even though this is my first Triathlon I am guessing this is a great course to go for a PR on. Narrow sheltered bay for swimming, small transition area, roads smooth & flat.
