• Organised?No
• Events on time?No


• Lots of volunteers to help?Yes
• Plenty of drink stations?Yes


• Post race activities? Bad
• Overall course based on my ability: Too hard


• Comments: This was put on by great people for a great cause. However, I think few of them have experience in multisport. They started the sprint/olympic races at the same time. By the time, I finished the race most of the sprint athletes were gone. I know several other people were upset with the organization, particually the swim event. We spent 15 minutes after the race was supposed to start trying to figure out the swim course. If someone is looking for a top notch Triathlon in Western PA, this race is not it. If someone is looking for a demanding physical challenge while helping a great cause, this is a great race.

• Comments: A very small race, but worthwhile. A very enjoyable course, even if hilly. I think it would have been more enjoyable without the rain, but it was good. I will certainly consider doing it again.
