  • Comments: Tri in the Parks puts on a great race series. For this race they increased the number of water stations due to the heat and the volunteers at these races are always very energetic and supportive which helps out a lot. I really enjoyed doing this series and look forward to doing it agian next year. This race was my final tri for my first year and I am in love with this sport and can't wait to put together my race calander for next year and get better.

  • Comments: I look at these sprints as being for fun; Just a fitness test in anticipation of the 'A' race at the end of the year. From that perspective, I really had a good time. For a local series, I think the TriBlueSky folks do a really good job. I am considering doing enough of these to participate in the points race next year.

  • Comments: I really enjoyed the race. I do wish I knew more people and could add a social element to the events. While it did not go exactly as planned, I feel like it was a step forward. I learned some things and know what I need to work on for Tugaloo and HIM. Side note, I woke up the day after and felt great. I went for a nice long bike ride. Last race, I was hurting the next day. So, some endurance improvements are showing up.

  • Comments: I was not overly impressed by the race. I would challenge both the swim and bike distances. It was also a bit chaotic around transition where the course was still open. It was a small staging area for volunteers, specators and athletes. I was shocked there weren't any accidents. This doesn't go to say that I won't race it again next year.

  • Comments: Tri the parks always puts on great races. Very well organized with plenty of volunteers and water stations. I will definitely sign up for at least 4 of these next year. If I calculated it correctly, I placed 3rd over all females in the series rankings! YAY!
