  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: They really fixed some things about this race that were annoying. One thing they didn't fix which was VERY annoying is not having bathrooms in the T1 area. There is nothing more annoying than having to stand in huge twenty minute line with spectators thirty minutes before the race to go to the bathroom. Don't need that stress. FIX IT!!!

  • Comments: I am extremely happy with the race. I dropped just under a half an hour off my time from last year of 3:04 (which was my first ever triathlon). The course was essentially identical. From the results it would seem I am doing the right things I just need to keep working on them.

  • Comments: I have only competed in local sprint tris before. This event was PRO. Evertything done right. Started on time, course well volunteered and marked. Interesting fun race through LA w/ no traffic. Tons of food and drink on and off course. Free massages and beer garden worth the somewhat steep price of entry fee. Shuttle back to venice beach from downtown was easier more efficient than I expected. Could be slightly better w/more bathrooms at race start, more rack space for my age group in T1. Mandatory packet pick-up the day before in downtown was a hassle. Overall great first Olympic distance tri.
