  • Comments: A great intro to Triathlon. August of last year I was having spinal surgery to remove a tumor. That's why I decided on this particular race to be my first. I look forward to my next Tri (Emerald Point?) and to coming back next year to Lake Blackshear with the wife and kids.

  • Comments: This is a great race - low key, beginner friendly, great course. Well-run race, as usual. The swim was a little more crowded than ideal, but there was talk about moving the location a little next to address this issue. I hope they don't move much, though, because I really enjoy this race!

  • Comments: Good race overall. Normal Jim Rainey race. Well organized, pretty much on time, just a little slow pulling it together at the end. Awards took FOREVER! I guess I can't complain since I was actually there for the awards for once. :) I was a little disappointed that not all of the finisher medals were the same. Looked like some of the folks received medals with a swimmer, biker, and runner whereas others only had a biker. Sort of odd, but he did promise to mail folks medals if they didn't receive one.

  • Comments: I really enjoyed this race......again. It was my 3rd time participating in the event. It is amazing to see how much this race has grown. Unless I missed it,though, there was not a "goody bag" this year. Not sure if there is was a photographer on course this year. Oh well, still a fun event.

  • Comments: I like this course, minus the gnats! I will probably do this again next year. It was pretty cool seeing a father/son (just a guess) duo compete as one. They were kind of like Team Hoyt.

  • Comments: The water probably shouldn't be that cold at the drinking stations along the run. Other than that, a very well organized race.

  • Comments: I love this race. This was Doug's first race and my second last year. The park is beautiful and Doug's folks can bring their RV. There is lots of neat stuff to do in the park so we can bring the girls. No beef jerky in the goody bag this year, but we will stop to get some on the way home. We will definitely do this race again.

  • Comments: I liked this course overall and it seemed pretty well organized. The local folks were nice and Cordele was generally better than I expected for a Interstate-based town. I didn't see a photographer and doubt there was one there. I would've liked that. I heard the awards took too long again. On the whole, a very positive experience which was only tainted by my inexperience. Ill put data in when I get it.
