  • Comments: Great race, well organized. Transition area was set up nice and well controlled for access. Not the best swim race for spectators but everywhere else was good. Tons of volunteers on the road during the bike. Adequate aid stations on the run.

  • Comments: I have nothing to compare this too, but I thought it was great!! My only comment is I wish there were more people around Saturday who I could have spoken with to ask questions. It was a lot of fun, all of the race people and many of the athletes were very nice and encouraging. No one laughed in my face when I was almost the last one out of the water!! It was a nice course for a total beginner, bike hills were very manageable, and the run (walk for me) was nice and easy for the end.

  • Comments: This was the start of the Tri season and it went well. I had a hard time psyching myself up for this race and really had no expectation for it good or bad. It was more like just do it and did I did. It was the second time sub 1:30. Sweet. Right where I left off last year. I did enjoy the race and wanted to do well after we started. I had fun on the bike despite the road surface. Run was a good mental push for me, mainly because the physical stuff was missing. Great food for this race after. College Cafe does a great menu and Mike referred to as project Clydesdale. I may be closer then I want to be now. This was a well tum race with lots of cheering volunteers. To all the BT'ers I met great job today. I forget names easy like in a second or two. So we can meet again next year. Some times I even wrap my own birthday presents. Mike thanks for the lift. Y thanks for letting the girls hang with you. Will for putting up with more then a senior should have to the day

  • Comments: This is the triathlon season opener for upstate/western NY and it's at a great venue. Keuka College is beautiful, the lake is great and the food is the best you'll get at a tri. Being able to eat in the cafeteria is really nice. Once the roads get fixed this will be a truly great race. If the roads keep deteriorating from their present condition without being fixed, I don't know that I'd do it again.

  • Overall course based on my ability: Too hard

  • Comments: Could have used even just one aid station on the bike. Saw some folks w/ bike issues, too bad there was no traveling repair vehicle (can't have it all of course). I made it! Actually w/ out a race pace effort it shouldn't have been tough to complete but the cramps almost did me in and that became the real challenge. I had a good time reaching my goal! I wasn't DFL overall, in my AG or of men, but I was one of the heaviest, therefore, I didn't do too bad in my book :]
