  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: The race venue was great and the race was a good challenge. The communication from the race director could have been better. There was one intersection on the bike course with lots of loose gravel that seemed like too much of a hazard and probably should have been cleared for the race. Also, there were not nearly enough bike racks, so the transition area was WAY too crowded. However, the volunteers were great, and it seemed like the timing went well. The post race food was pretty standard - bagels w/pb, pretzels, cookies, gatorade, water, etc. Overall, I had a great time, but there is room for improvement.

  • Comments: This was really hard for a sprint.. the volunteers and organizers were amazing though! Would've liked some water after the swim, but otherwise no complaints - we actually hit the run water stop twice which is more than I normally expect for a 5k.
