  • Comments: I'll say t again. Do this race. Or actually, don't, so I can get in again :) Post race the activities didn't stop. Collected gear and dropped the bike at tri bike. Hung out with my sister for a few, then walked back to the hotel, where we got there with 15 minutes to spare to late checkout. Quick shower/pack/checkout then a brisk walk to Pier 35, about 1.5 miles away, for the alcatraz ferry we'd booked. Alcatraz for a couple hours, then back to the hotel, sit for 1/2 hour, Lyft to airport. I was Shattered by the end of that weekend. But I'd do it again in a heartbeat

  • Comments: In case there was ever any doubt - YES, this race lives up to the hype. Wondering if you should have this one on your bucket list? Wonder no more... do this race. In fact, take it off your Bucket List. Pay attention to when the lottery opens and throw down the $25 to enter.... you never know, like me, you just might get picked the first time around!

  • Comments: What a fun race. I kind of wish I had prepped more. I really could have done a ton better if I had a clue what I was doing. I might have to do this one again to see what I can really do.

  • Comments: This was an epic event and truly lived up to its name and reputation. Really special and a lot of fun to participate in. Very well organized, with excellent communication up to and including the event (very important given the nature of the race). I will do it again, if I am lucky in the lottery!
