  • Comments: This race was very special to me - not because of my performance but because of the friends that surrounded me. Having the MMMer's there was awesome - getting to race with Hilde was awesome!!! And meeting Tammy at the finish line was awesome! These people have such great work ethic and have inspired me over the last year that it was just too cool to have them physically there!!! Hilde, Tammy, Kati, Brad, Jonathon, Neil, Aneatria, William - it was awesome to share the finish line experience with you guys...This race will be very memorable for me because of the friendships and time shared!!! Thanks Gang.

  • Comments: I was really disappointed in the weather, wasn't happy with my swim time, but the rest was okay. Really enjoyed racing with Wilson and Brad! Beautiful race venue, wish I lived closer, I would want to do this one again. Once again, I came in second because of the run. I beat the 1st place girl in EVERYTHING but the run.

  • Comments: Overall I had 3 goals going in. Sub 60 - Check (I thought 58 on a great day), AG Podium - Check (3rd and they went to 5th), and Top 40 - Check. I can't really complain, but seeing who finished right ahead of me and knowing that I didn't push the beginning of either the bike or the run, I know I have more in the tank. I'm going for 56 in August. Also, the race wasn't really on time, but it was in the best interest of the racers, so I said it was on time.

  • Comments: I really liked the race, and if I would have started further up in the swim I think it would have been a really great race. I like the venue. The organization was perfect. It was a lot of fun to see that many athletes. Very cool. I will try to keep doing this series. Fun to see the same faces at all the different races.

  • Comments: Nice race course for a beginner: flat and shaded. Learned a lot for my wife's Go Girl tri this August. She also volunteered, so got some good experience. Fun event, but a little too crowded for me.

  • Comments: Tuxedo brothers always has a great race, this is no exception. I hated the TT start - you did not know who you were racing against - if I was really racing, I'd probably not be happy with that. I loved the new course changes, which were necessated by construction on the old bike course - I hope they keep these changes.

  • Comments: The event started late because of some problems on the course (big puddles, downed tree limb, etc.) related to a big storm that blew through the night before. So the blame goes to the weather not the organizers, who did a great job of setting everything back up (the signs and tents had been blown over) and getting things cleaned up (volunteers were picking up tiny sticks in the transition area!).

  • Comments: fun race, never have done one this short! Raced this race a few years ago when the bike was longer. Nice course, the run was through the park and the bike was probably a third in the park.

  • Comments: Poor management of start. The older/heavier group should not have started. The faster group was basically swimming over us.

  • Comments: pretty good for the first time in open water. Still learning how to do tris so this was a good experience for learning with good competition and great weather. Need to work on transitioning the most and pacing myself in the water. Forcing myself to run faster/through the discomfort is another important thing. Could use more restrooms.
