Comments: This is the first time this race had been run, and it was excellent! The organization was good. Started on time. Volunteers and sherrifs at every approrpiate place. Packets included a good quality technical shirt, not a cotton t-shirt. Nice prizes were raffled. The last finishers got big applauses. Didn't have to wait forever for the awards ceremony to start. Good music (if you like music in Spanish). All finishers got medals. Top 3 Overall won running shoes. Top 3 of each AG won gift certificates for use at the new tri shop. Lots of first timers seemed really happy!
The only negatives were a lousy road for the first half mile (mentioned on the website so it wasn't a surprise) and lack of timing chips. I assume they'll add a full timing system as the race grows.
Congratulations Tri-sition Area and Seidel Productions for a great race!
