  • Comments: Great race altogether. Whether you are a seasoned elite or a beginner just getting into the sport. The location is secluded and provides a safe environment to race. The folks that live in the development are supportive and, I believe for the most part, enjoy hosting the race. Of course there are probably those that want those "dang triathletes" to find somewhere else to race. This race was my first of the season after recovering from a stress fracture through March and April. Spent May and June getting back on track and this was a great opener for me. I enjoyed it immensely finishing with a smile on my face.

  • Comments: I'm really happy with the outcome. Last year I did it in 1:29:23; assuming the competition was roughly the same as last year, by cutting off five and a half minutes, I moved up significantly in all areas (I went from placing 156 to 81 overall mens). I went from the tail end of the meaty part of the curve to the front end of it. I'll take it, and hopefully run with it! I enjoyed this distance and I'd like to get a lot better at it.

  • Comments: Good race, and glad to see a legit run course this year. The new swim start is a little cramped.
