  • Comments: I have to admit, this was probably my least favorite setup race so far this year. The whole race seemed ho-hum for some reason - not sure why. Between the narrow pool lanes, the rough bike course, and the slight unorganization I'm not sure I'll try this one again.

  • Comments: Leaving people out on course with no water and then having no food at post race because *we were told no one else was left on course* was horrible. Good note is I am getting a full refund and a free entry to another race so they fixed it!

  • Comments: Fun race, not crazy about a pool swim but once that was over you could not have asked for a better day! Weather was perfect and it was fun to race again. Good boost for White Lake.

  • Comments: This event is one of my favorites. It was the first triathlon I ever did (last year). And it will continue to be one that is on my race list. WAC has to be one of the best in the series! Awesome after race spread! I don't know why this race isn't more popular. This one should sell out every year. Thanks for another great time!

  • Comments: This is a very fun and well-run event. The volunteers were great and really gave me the pick-me-up I needed toward the end of the run. Because this was my very first race of any kind EVER last year, I think the WAC Sprint Tri will forever hold a special place in my heart.

  • Comments: The swim needs to change some how and the bike course needs to be measured again because I spoke to two top finisher and some others and we all had the similar reading on our bike computers for the distance Avg 11.87 . I had fun though and well organized alotttttttt more fun than Azalea Tri a month back and better organized.

  • Comments: Believe that, if possible, to have a one loop bike portion. I noticed numbers that started behind me and didn't pass me were almost through the run before I got back from the second loop.

  • Comments: Love this race, why it is not as popular as Azalea Fest is beyond me. I think the course is better, much more scenic and safer. The only downside is the pool, it would seem much better to have people use their 300 time instead of 100. There were people starting in the top 10 that took about 10 minutes to finish, it was ridiculous. It's rude and really takes away from other peoples race. I managed to place 3rd overall in the Master's category, never done that before!

  • Comments: Best Triathlon I've ever been in! (Don't cheapen that by reminding me it was my FIRST.) More experienced triathletes commented on how professional this event was. Would like to do this event again, if they have it next year.

  • Comments: Overall I had a great race! It gave me lots of things to think about for future races. I was very pleased with my swim and bike and I now know I need to work on my bike to run transition. This is something I would like to focus on so I can get used to the feeling of sitting on a bike and then going to straight to the run. This was the first year for this event. It's definately one I would recommend to beginner and seasoned triathletes. It was well run by SET UP EVENTS. They gave every participant a tranition stool and a frame to put your race bib in! The post race festivities included a pancake breakfast, beer, raffle draw and good music!
