  • Comments: Overall a well-run race, so I apologize for listing negatives. Easier than listing the several things that went without a hitch. The swim out blowup collapsing was inexcusable. Volunteers didn't know everything and did not know who I should speak to to get questions answered. Lastly, 3D did not want ppl in transition to get their gear until the last racer was in from the bike (rightly so). No one was manning the entrance I went in only to see a racer come through. I felt bad, but had no idea. All in all, this was a good race, and I hit my goal of becoming age-group competitive in sprints this year.

  • Comments: I got all my splits this race!!! Thats a improvement :) I still think this is a good race, and a good venue for the championship. The only sticking point is the first 3-3.5 miles on that bike course!!! If they can figure that out, I hope they keep this venue. Also, I have to say I was very happy for my Dad!!! I mainly did this race again this year to do it with him. This was his first race ever last year, and he wanted to come back and see how much he improved. I would say that over 20 minutes off your time from last year is a NICE BIG IMPROVEMENT!!! :)

  • Comments: Give the organizers credit for fixing the bike course safety concerns from last year. The staggered starts and coned off lane really helped.
