  • Organised?
  • Events on time?No

  • Lots of volunteers to help?
  • Plenty of drink stations?

  • Post race activities?
  • Overall course based on my ability:

  • Comments: Too many levels of competition make it hard to organize. Transition area is not very secure. Transition area is crowded with people and difficult for all the athletes especially those doing longer segments coming in when others are finished and leaving. Bike in and out is adjacent to active road and none of the roads were closed down. Automobile traffic using the roads at the same time the race is going on was kind of dangerous.

  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: The guy making announcements was a bit of a fool (enough with the cowbell, don't ring it while you're talking!) and didn't run the awards ceremony very well. But overall it was fairly well organized. They just need to not change the swim course on us 30 times, mark the bike course better, put a water station at the top of that hill, and give someone else the microphone.

  • Comments: It was a good race for me, considering my level of training and ability. I did well on the swim and run, and did not expect much on the bike. It was somewhat typical for a Lake Geneva race with some strange things such as the short swim, but I have to say it is a beautiful town and a challenging course. My expectations were not that high because of past complaints about Lake Geneva, and they were exceeded. The races started close to on time and the bike course was well marked. I enjoyed it.

  • Comments: I did not like that the rules were not enforced at this race. It is not fair to people who follow the rules that others are allowed to cheat.
