  • Comments: Given the last minute change, the race was delayed 15 minutes because people had to find their way to the new location. No biggie. The food was AMAZING and plentiful. I stayed to watch the last racer come in - a 76 yo doing his first tri. Also watched the awards take place, and it was nice to see a good number of people stayed around to watch. A great local race, and a wonderful race director who cheered my name every time she saw me. I admire her efforts and the work of all the volunteers to make this race happen despite the flooding at the original race location. My only complaint is the same as last year - I wish they'd restrict the transition area to athletes only. Lots of spectators were in the way of the athletes. Otherwise, a fantastic race!

  • Comments: This was a pretty good race. The course had to change at the last minute due to flooding at Surry Mountain Lake, but otherwise this was a great beginner friendly race. I learned a lot and the race and course made it possible for me to give triathlon a try. I would highly recommend this to people as a first triathlon.

  • Comments: This year there were no timing chips, so the above times are based on what I can remember from my watch as I was doing the course. It felt a little more disorganized than last year. And the post race food was not very good. I don't like to complain though. Sharing in my friend's excitement was really great too! That was awesome. So I've updated this race with the official data that was posted today. I performed better than I thought I did. Yeah!

  • Comments: I liked this race, fun low key - they were running out of water at the end of the race though...and at the water station. Yea, I'm a slow runner but I still need water. I'll do this one again...
