• Comments: I was the sixth overall female...four of the six in front of me I knew. I won my AG...which suprised me - I thought for sure my friend that got 2nd in my AG would have gotten it. This was a great race. Of course, I am very biased since it was through my tri club. There were about 140 racers, so it was a small race, but such a fun one! I remembered to get my chip...no bike wrecks..no issues on the swim, and I did ALMOST fall once on the run, but I never actually fell...wow...this was a great race for me!!! See the pics below...William (triritter) got 2nd OA! He did great as well. Like I said...fun race...I will of course do this one again next year...

• Comments: This is the best sprint I have ever participated. Very well organized, very friendly people. Plenty of aid stations, flaggers at every corner. Police officers at every intersection. Some of the best pasta I've ever had post-race. Tons of bagels, oranges, bananas, gatorade, water. Cookies. Cookies. Cookies. :) Post-race massage at a sprint! Probably over-kill, but it's nice to be treated like you're at something special. I'll definitely do this race again next year, if I'm not involved with directing it.

• Comments: Overall the race was great. It was my first event and it went great. The race event was top notch and my finish was better than I expected. I beat my goal time by 10 1/2 minutes.
