  • Comments: I thought this was a great sprint course. Volunteers were extremely helpful. Race was well organized, it was easy to know what to do and where to go. I really liked the bike course that was out and back through the rolling Texas farm land outside Denton. Run course had perfect amount of aid stations and lots of volunteers. Finish line was down hill and made for a great finish. Fun medals and great post race sponsors and food. It's also a fundraiser for TWU's women's soccer team to help offset some of their costs. The team was there volunteering which I thought was awesome.

  • Comments: My First Triathlon! Finished which was my goal, but a little disappointed to come in last in my age group. I knew I wasn't ready, but wanted to try anyway. More training before the next one!!

  • Comments: I give it a 4/5 only because I felt like the bike should have been described as "hilly" instead of "flat". I am comfortable riding hills, but a hill is a hill - call it what it is.

  • Comments: While the race itself was OK I rate it as overall a poor event due to distance to T1 from pool, the results posted on the website are incomplete and the photos posted by the photographer were a jumbled mess. I won't be doing this race again.

  • Overall course based on my ability: Too easy

  • Comments: First ever hardware at a tri! First ever top 10% finish. Definitely a race I will remember. I hate to say it, but this was too easy. I thought it would be coming in. The sprints have been fun, but I really am ready to graduate to bigger and better things. Hopefully my performance next week at Disco reflects this. As always, Ironhead puts on a top-notch race. Always organized, always to-the-point. It's good that way. You know what you're going to get. Proceeds benefitted the women's soccer team, so they were the volunteers for the race. Bagels, bananas, yogurt and gatorade afterwards. Can't complain there. But only 2 tents setup as info booths. I'd like to say I would do this one again, but I just don't see myself racing sprints too much anymore.
