Race rating (3)

Comments: Not as good as North East Tri, but still an enjoyable race. Would consider coming back next year (mainly to try and challenge myself to do better!)

Race rating (4)

Comments: This is a great race for people like me that have an OW swim phobia they are trying to beat. While the short distances are good for first timers, the bike course and run could be a challenge unless they train for it. I was hoping this race would be overwhelmingly made-up of people like me that are new to tris and just want experience to help them learn and build from...but I think there are a good portion of experienced and very competitive triathletes here, so come ready to compete if that is your goal. The race was well organized, but they could do some improvements with the start of the swims. Everything else was fantastic, and I would like to do this again next year.

Race rating (4)

Comments: I really liked Marshman (it is its first year), but hope that next year the number of racers will be limited to around 300. The swim and bike portions were very crowded. So much so on the bike that people were not adhering to USAT rules for drafting, passing, blocking, etc. I will definitely put this on my race calendar for next year!!
