  • Comments: This race went about a 1000 times better for me than Buffalo a few weeks back. First of all, I could actually move my neck, which was a huge plus. Second, I had a much better attitude in general so that helped too. I haven't done this race before, but I have done 27 (?) others at this point, and I have to say this was one of my very favorites. The course is very nice (except that walk from the beach up the hill ;) ), the shirts are nice, the atmosphere is laid back but not disorganized, and there is no extraneous goodie bag of stuff I'll never use anyway. Oh, and they only body marked one arm, and then the back of the calf. Love that! The both arms/both legs bodymarking is excessive, IMO. And no bike orhelmet stickers either! Despite the rough weather at the start and the hour delay, this was just a very pleasant race experience in general. I will definitely be back!
