  • Comments: This race had some challenges in terms of making adjustments because of the High Park Fire nearby. The organizers did an excellent job of making sure the race happened despite these challenges. Would have liked a little more detail about run course changes (in terms of knowing the change in distance), but this truly was a great race.

  • Comments: This is a very well run race and a fantastic course. If you have the chance to do it, give it a shot. Remember, though, this is a nationals qualifying event. That means there are some very well trained athletes. I personally fall from FOP to MOP for that very reason.

  • Comments: HORRIBLE race direction for the late finishers. That's why I gave it 2 stars, otherwise it would've earned 4 or 5. The bike leg is just absolutely gorgeous and the volunteers at both the run and bike aid stations were amazingly enthusiastic. It's too bad that impression was completely ruined for me in the last 1/2 mile of the race. Short version: if you're FOP/MOP/front of BOP then you will absolutely LOVE this race. If you're super slow like me, don't do it. Long version: I'm a pretty slow racer (finished in just over 4.5 hours) so by the time I got to the run there weren't too many people behind me. By that point, the run course had been deserted by the volunteers. As I was heading back for the last 1/2 mile, I had no idea where to go. Some guy who happened to be putting away some football equipment (not related to the race) pointed in the general direction of the finish line so I kept going. Another racer who was relaxing by the reservoir saw I was still going and kind of lost

  • Comments: This race is AWESOME. It is one of my favorite races. The post race feast was the best I've had anywhere. The competition is fierce and the bike ride is beautiful. This was the first tri that I ever raced in 2005. My time was 3:06; today it was 2:26. Yee Ha!

  • Comments: The combo of the 5430 sprint then Lake to Lake is the way to go for oly training... Loveland was a great race...kids would love all the activities...but not to get up at 3:15! Next year will be on the podium...

  • Comments: I really really enjoyed this race (once I was out of the water). Its very very organized, lots and lots of awesome volunteers. Great course. This was a nice "welcome back" race after a few years off due to injury and a deployment. The post race meal was amazing - burritos, brownies yum.
