  • Comments: Love that there's so many collegiate teams at this race...and they they start FIRST. It's a great race for beginners and for folks who have raced for years. Lots of places to stay and things to do. Great for families to watch and join the fun. Hate the T1 run but know that there's nothing that can be done about it

  • Comments: Setup does a nice job. Kind of limited with the venue space. Hopefully that will improve when the park makes improvements. Will be back next year.

  • Comments: I love doing this race. It's close to home, it's flat and fast, and it's friendly. Two things (since I know setup reads these! and appreciate that!) 1. bring back the u-shape swim. That triangle was a beast. 2. traffic issues...i have no suggestions and the volunteers and police were WONDERFUL, BUT there were just some issues with us being on a narrow 2-lane road, once their was some bike volume in both directions and car volume in 2 directions, lots of riding on the wrong side of the road and stuff....something to look into, i guess?

  • Comments: Cold pizza is not my idea of post race food. The swim course change was a race morning surprise and not too pleasant at that.

  • Comments: The event was well run and had plenty of volunteers and Police Officers to keep us going in the right direction. The bike mount/dismount area and the first part of the bike course is very cramped but there is little that can be done to improve this due to the location of the race. I loved the race and look forward to running the event next year, hopefully in the Half Iron distance.

  • Comments: Pizza was not appealing to me post race, but the fruit and chex mix were fine. How many people asked me why I was wearing "those things" on my legs? Lost count after 3 or 4 of them.

  • Comments: Set Up Events puts on a good race and this was no exception. The rain was a pain in the butt, but stopped during the bike and run legs, which was nice. Overall, a very good sprint that I'd highly recommend. Thanks to all the volunteers who put up with the rain!!!

  • Comments: Great race, great venue, very well organized. Quite a fewe people arrived late for packet-pickup and chip pickup, but thatr was nott he organizers fault. They adapted and dit the best to get stuff to every one. Organizer left Transition open 10 minutes extra to accomodate everyone. Food was great and they had plenty.

  • Comments: If properly trained, I think I could excel at this venue. Weather, despite rain was beautiful - temperature wise. It's going to be a long offseason, trying to get rid of these 40 pounds, and pick up my speed back to where it belongs. Off to download an offseason training plan.

  • Comments: This race really attracts many novices with an Oly going off an hour later. So my rankings need to be put in that light (ie. 5th overall bike split)

  • Comments: Wonderful race. Nice flat course. Right after the race, they had problems with incorrect ages in the results. For 15 minutes I thought I had finished second in my age group. Once they were straightened out, I dropped to fourth. So close!
