  • Comments: This was my first and I enjoyed it. I plan to try an open water swim; I expect that I will prefer it. When the race start comes around, I want to start rather than wait for an hour.

  • Comments: Good race, again.....the swim start was a HUGE cluster. No one to control who was going into the water based on their numbers. (I'm not talking about sandbaggers or beginners putting 3:00 as their swimtime....just people with no regard to the numbering system). I let the RD know about this. I may do the race in October here....but if that issue isn't corrected at that race, this may be my last time doing it. Other than that....can't complain. good race, support, volunteers, and post-race.

  • Comments: This race is probably my favorite sprint since it's so close and the course is nice. If they can fix their racking order, it would be great! Good food (eggs, bacon, sausage, bagels, pancakes, as well as apples, bananas, and oranges)!

  • Comments: My only complaint is the chaos of the swim start and not enforcing their own rule about starting in order of bib number. I will email the RD some suggestions for this

  • Comments: Was a fast race and fairly flat course. The volunteers were encouraging. The facility is great. I really like the run sections on the rubber track surface. That was nice on the legs. Bike course had several turnarounds but they were managed well. Only complaint is the swim start. Wheels off with everyone jumping in line whenever they wanted. Maddening to say the least with slow swimmers in the way. If you are going to ask for swim times, please abide by the order. Breakfast was pretty good and the finishing area was nice with plenty of room for spectators. Would do this one again.
