  • Comments: The City of Bellingham Parks & Rec. Department does a great job on their races. This is one is fun and challenging. Post race entertainment is the race director giving out the awards and door prizes. He's a funny guy and makes this race that much more fun. This is the second year I've done this race and I'll keep doing it as long as I can! It has a 300 competitor limit so if you'd like to do this one, sign up fairly early!

  • Comments: I would have appreciated a water station at about mile 1.5 on the run. It takes a mile or so for me to recover from the bike and I can't get the water to stay down from the aid station 100yards out of T2. Overall a good racing day. I would have like to have done better but considering the competition in my age group I don't think I did that bad. After all the guy who finished first at 1:33 (that's insane) was in my age group. All I can say is that there are some crazy in shape people in Bellingham.

  • Comments: there was no food at the end of the race, nor did they have finishers' medals. i was mostly dissappointed with the lack of post race refreshments - only a couple coolers to get water from, nothing more.

  • Comments: This race is hands down my favorite in the area! They do a great job from start to finish. Lots of good swag and a nice tech t-shirt. I got a couple of pairs of socks and a comemorative glass, but they also gave away a wetsuit, some speedplay pedals, a nice set of profie design bars, some Rudy Project sunglasses and then tons of other little stuff. This race is great!
