  • Comments: I 3 goals for this race 1) Come in under 1h50mins 2) swim in under 25mins 3) bike at a 20mph+ average And I met all of these goals, so am very happy. The penalty and issue coming into T2 cost me probably 5 places in the AG, which would have put me ~6th. But I aren't bitter. I think the penalty was fair. This was my 2nd tri after Memphis in May last month, which was pretty disastrous after a bad OWS. This was so much better, honestly after the last race I didn't want to do any more tris, but now I am hungry for more!!

  • Comments: The race was well managed; it's been around for 20 yrs I think. The course was tough and challenging, esp for an outta shape triathlete. Shirts were pretty cool with a great design. This one's def worth doing.

  • Comments: The site is great. We are actually thinking of coming back next year and camp at the park for a couple of days. We saw a few families camping right next to the transition area, so that might be nice for next year.

  • Comments: I was hoping for 1:35, but that was using 18 miles on the bike leg, which turned out to be more like 19 miles. Given the extreme heat and humidity, not a bad performance.

  • Comments: Great race, great course. There did not seem to be alot of food afterwards (fajitas and watermelons) Pleanty of drinks available. This is one of my favorite races each year, just was very disappointed with my run.

  • Overall course based on my ability: Too hard

  • Comments: This is a well organized and well supported race event. I know that I would have performed better with more favorable weather conditions. I will need to think hard about whether or not I will race under similar conditions again. I'm not handling training or racing in the heat and humidity very well. The conditions and the way I felt reminded me of Memphis in May last month. It's not much fun doing the training, then having a sub par performance with a hot race day.

  • Comments: Great job of course clean up of debris after the storms. Also, they did the race with generators for the PA announcer and deejay since the power was knocked out. Post-race was good.
