  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: Good race. A little disorganized at the swim start with lining people up according to projected swim time. Maybe a better numbering system? Several water stations on the bike - surprising for a 15 mile event. But maybe it was good for slower riders and first-timers. Overally I thought it was a good race for a park district to put on.

  • Comments: I'm glad I did this race but they have lots to work on. First, there was ZERO communication leading up to the event from the organizers. Second, there were 4 water stops on the bike which is NUTS for a Sprint and only 1 on the RUN. That 1 on the RUN ran out of water, when it was probably most needed.

  • Comments: Bike route was not very smooth. Many potholes and hard bumps. Refreshments were meager. Having two transition areas was not optimal. They announced that the pool would be open after the race and it wasn't. Not too many people were happy to lay their bikes down on the asphalt parking lot in T2.

  • Post race activities? Bad
  • Overall course based on my ability: Too easy

  • Comments: Lots of volunteers and police to direct participants on the course. Race gets poor marks however, due to the two transition areas, lack of bike racks in both, no bike/transition security, and racers and spectators were walking around in each transition throughout the race.
