  • Comments: I'm giving this race an "Average" rating because of the annoying/@sshole coordinator and the terrible swim conditions. The run and bike were great though. I have noticed that the bike is the most important event of the 3. I ranked 134 overall in the bike, and guess what? I ranked 134 overall. I also ranked 12 in the bike in my AG, and got 12 in my AG overall. Although I thought I had done better than I actually did, I'm still happy. In May, I was last in my AG. In the Mountain Man, I was 3rd to last. I was 6th to last in this race. I'm improving! What's most important is that I'm having fun, have met some amazing people that I now call friends, and it's only been 6 months since I've started all this.

  • Comments: My only comment is that the jerk who didn't take the lost kid seriously is in need of a serious pummeling. What an arse! Thank God the Sheriff's department didn't treat us like dirt the same way that guy did [he may have been the race director, but I can't say for sure].

  • Comments: Good race for me. SOOOO happy a cloud bank came in and blocked the sun. It would have been absolutely brutal on the run if the sun were still beating down, so that saved us. It was still probably right around 100 though. 2nd in AG 9th woman overall out of 61 women

  • Comments: This was my first tri ever last year, so it was nice to come back and do it again. Last time I did it on my Mtn Bike and got passed by everyone. I beat last years time by about 20 minutes!

  • Comments: Couple of gripes. First, there were no timing chips - - it was a running clock. Luckliy, we started near the front. On the bike, they only had certain portions coned off and there was traffic on the course. At one point, you even have to go in front of cars to turn left. There was a policeman there on the 2nd loop. The swim was a clusterf**k. As this is my strongest leg, I need to make up some time in the pool. Tough to do with this up-and-back in every lane thing they had going on. Very congested.
