  • Overall course based on my ability: Too hard

  • Comments: Even though this is a middle distance between sprint and olympic, this race always seems harder than the olympics. Need to train on more hills.

  • Comments: Good race organization, but there could have been some more drink stations. The end of the race was a little hot and only 3 drink stations on a 4.5 mile run was not enough.

  • Comments: Tri Del is a fantastic sprint triathlon/duathlon event. The course suits me well and because it is local, it's a no-brainer, must-do event. It's well organized, the tech-t's and jerseys are cool and the field is usually fairly strong. Good stuff.

  • Comments: This race is like 1 mile from my house on the same lake I live on. This is my third year doing the race and I love it. However, I am starting to get annoyed at the amount of vehicle traffic on the bike route when I know there are other routes they could take that would be much less busy.

  • Comments: As always, great race and great organization. The events started a little late, but ran smoothly after that. Good food afterwards. Did not stick around for the awards (I knew I did not get anything) and headed to the cottage to relax.

  • Comments: This is a great race and the course looks harder than it really is. The bike route is very fast and you can get some great speed on the downhills if you push it. The weather forecast looked horrible but the actual weather, sunny and in the mid 50's at the start of the race, was perfect. Thanks to the crew from Gazelle who did a great job organizing and the volunteers from Village Bike that were helping out on the bike route.

  • Comments: This is my favorite race, of course I am totally biased since it takes place on the lake I live on and I can ride my bike there. Next year, I am going sub 2 hours.

  • Comments: This race used to be called the Great Lakes Triathlon Championships and is under Gazelle Sports for the first time this year as Tri Del Sol. Gazelle is a great local sports store that did a wonderful job on this race. I love the rolling hills on the bike course, and they're okay on the run. If you live near here, this is a great race I highly recommend.

  • Comments: This is a great race --done it 3 out of the last 4 years and highly recommend it. Well organized, good size, tons of volunteers and locals cheering you on. The water in the swim is clean, generally wetsuit legal, and the bike and run courses are challenging without being impossible.
