  • Comments: I could sit here bitchin about the different RAM races I've done (or signed up for and backed out of) because of their lack of attention to detail. But I won't. However, case in point - anyone who did they race go right now and get your cycling jersey (I'll wait). Okay, look at both side panels. Something eschew? (hopefully I'm making a point here and that I didn't get the only jersey with the words/letters reversed and upside down).

  • Comments: RAM puts on a good race. Lots of people participating in the three events of the day. Good venue, good breakfast afterwards. Not sure why they didn't do the award ceromony on site ,though? And why the heck don't they have a bib pickup on site??? Oh yeah, the goodie bag had a nice bike jersey in it. So, now I have another one to compliment my Pleasant Prairie jersey. This should make Whizzzz happy.

  • Comments: TOTAL time off from last year: 39:51 One other stat: I was 88/179 for Females. I FINALLY went under 3 hours for a race where the swim is long...and the bike and run are NOT easy by ANY means! I felt like a competitor out there...FINALLY...this is the race I have wanted for a couple years now. After bonking as bad as I did in Racine...this was AWESOME!!!! :)

  • Comments: RAM Racing event. RAM stands for Really Against Measuring. My swim was 5 minutes faster than last year. 13 minutes slower than an alleged 1500 at Bigfoot (also a RAM race) and only three minues slower than 1.2 at Racine. The swim could NOT have been 1500. RAM just doest get this one right. The swim was long AGAIN. A little better with amount of water on course, but thank GOD it was overcast or couldve turned into another zombie shuffle. I dont know if I will go back next year. That lake is nasty with weeds and mud at exit and RAM cannot get a swim course right. Trouble is that it is soooo close, hard to pass up race basically in back yard.
