• Comments: The swim is fine(it's about what you'd expect from a pool start), the bike was fine, but the run had issues. For starters, it wasn't marked well. Several of the top guys lost some time because they couldn't tell which way to go on the run back into the finish(this was fixed prior to me getting back there) due to a lack of signage. That, and there was a 90 degree turn right before the finish from pavement to grass that quite a few people ate it on. Those are the only things that kept this race from being great; otherwise it was your standard well-stocked, well-assisted Ironhead race. Jack delivers a consistent product, and that consistency is appreciated.

• Comments: Wow. Hard to believe how far I have come in one year... I barely finished this race last year, even had to walk part of the run. This year, I finished strong, took 21 minutes off my previous time, and set a few pace PR's. All without socks!!
