  • Comments: A fun race and a greet venue. Great race! I love the bike course. Run was not the greatest course, but not sure where else to put it. Volunteers were awesome and HFP does a good job. However, in this day and age HFP takes too long to post results. Also,I don't do races for the shirts, but that race shirt is terrible. Who wears an embroidered race shirt?

  • Comments: It would have been good with the heat to have had one more water station at the turn-around of the run, but overall it was good. Events weren't on time, but I can't bag on them for that because you can't control a truck overturning. Overall, it was just a really beautiful course. The water was surprisingly clear (at least in the deeper parts and in the shallows on the first lap before things got churned up a little), and the bike course had almost all newly paved roads with a ton of cool scenery. Even the run, for as brutal as it felt, was kinda beautiful.... in other conditions, it'd actually have been really nice and fun.

  • Comments: My time is still 10 minutes slower than it should be, My swim was very slow I'm sure, but it was comfortable. I think I did pretty good on the bike considering the hills and inclines and really enjoyed it. The run was way too hot and I totally bonked, but I still enjoyed it. Overall I really liked this race. Loved the really roomy open transition area. It was a beautiful area. Roads were good. People were the nicest and friendliest and most helpful of any event I've been too. They were so nice & helpful. No swag bag. No bibs. But really enjoyed it. Just wish I would have been at least 5 minutes faster. I haven't even broken 2:50 this year!
