  • Comments: Only issue I had was that, for me, there were not enough drink stations along the run. I may also suggest the run from the swim exit into the grass transition was slippery and could be an issue.

  • Comments: The race was running 10-minutes late. I really didn't matter for me, and I didn't hear any complaints about it. It looked like the post-race activities would have been interesting, but I needed to get over to my family. I really look forward to the SOMA TRI next month, and will be doing this race for the foreseeable future. Well done LifeTime.

  • Comments: Hope to do this event again next year. Well supported and fun. Oly maybe? T-shirt is not my favorite design. Comfy but not anything special visually. Same with finisher's medal. Good quality bottle opener (yes, quite useful) but not a creative design.

  • Comments: considering i had run into bad health, felt extremely good that i was able to complete this race at all... The course around Tempe Town lake is absolutely fabulous and the race itself was quite well organized by the Red Rock Company with loads of traffic cones on both the run and bike courses, volunteers directing caution at sharp bends and curbs, and a drink station every mile on the run course, fresh eggs and fruit at the end of the race, and a nice goodie bag!

  • Comments: I learned a lot about open water swimming. My goals were to conquer the open water swim without becoming fish food and complete the race. I feel bad that I didn't push myself harder. I need to find a balance between pushing to exhaustion and not pushing hard enough. Overall I had a great time at this race. I can't wait for the next one!!!

  • Overall course based on my ability: Too easy

  • Comments: Although there are some bright spots, this was not the race I was hoping it would be. I really wanted this to be a 'statement' race, where I put everything together and really showed what I can do on a good day. I had adopted the mantra 'leave no doubt' for this race. I wanted to erase the problems that I have had in previous races and demonstrate that I have learned and improved all the way around - decisively. I didn't entirely come through as my run was a little off what I wanted and the swim was a disaster. However, it was, overall, a good race. Since the swim was a terrible, my overall placement suffered and I came close to wriggling out of the back of the pack into the middle third (70th percentile). All of the other numbers look good. My transitions and run were all in the top half, and the bike was in the top 20%. I'll still have to wait for the 'put it all together' race, but maybe I'm getting closer. I need to put the swim out of my mind. I can't have it haunting me

  • Comments: I really try to have fun with races and not worry too much about things out of my control. The bike course was tight with narrow lanes, several turns and 1200 people on it. The food simply did not compare to the Monti's catering of last year. Not even close. It is always fun to hang out with my friends and meet new people. It just makes racing much more enjoyable.

  • Comments: I would have really liked this race had it not been for the subpar bike loops. Glad I only had to do two!
