  • Comments: Good to see a lot of BTers and others out there. Makes the racing more fun, especially when it was more of a non-race day like this. I thought the race was run well with it starting right on time and there being enough volunteers, etc. I was alays able to get everything I needed at the aid stations and the post-race was good as well. Good race to kick off the season with.

  • Comments: Shouldn't bitch too much. Had an 8:30ish pace, but I really wanted 8 or better. It is early on, and this was definitely an eye-opener for me. I have to spend more time in the lower zones, and focus on maintaining muscle fitness in more than just my calves. I've been so deadset on getting my PF better that I kinda forgot I have other muscles to deal with. Next race will smoke though...I feel it!

  • Comments: This is a good early-season race/training event. I would definitely like to see more aid stations on the course, and better post-race food. With a little more prep on my part, this could be a very nice race.

  • Comments: The aid stations weren't staffed very well - I had to wait for water or grab it from behind the volunteers because they weren't handing it fast enough. And COOK YOUR DAMN HAMBURGER MEAT. Raw hamburger after running 13.1 miles was just plain traumatic.

  • Comments: There were plenty of volunteers and people scattered throughout the race course cheering us all on. The post race activities were OK and even had some good brats and bison burgers but I noticed they ran out of soft drinks very quickly (not that I needed one - just craved one).
