  • Overall course based on my ability: Too hard

  • Comments: It's my first so I don't have anything to compare it to. I expected there to be drink stations at every mile, but there was only one at the beginning of the race and one 2 miles in. I could have really used one at the 1 mile mark.

  • Comments: I liked the race although I had to leave before the 11:30 lunch. The volunteers were great and everything was great except the swim and swim warm up time. I'm sure they are worried about everyone, but I need more time to warm up.

  • Comments: Elite endeavors did a really nice job...everything was on time, organized, the people were friendly, and racers were well informed leading up to the race. and HELLO! Beer for recovery drinks! My only beef is the accuracy of the bike course and no water at mile one on the run!!! I will be doing this race again for sure!

  • Comments: I really enjoyed this race, it was nice to see what little training i have done this year has paid off. I took 19 min off my time from last year and couldn't be happier, I know I need to work on the swim and my run, but I was still pleased with the progression.

  • Overall course based on my ability: Too easy

  • Comments: 1) not strict enough in guarding the transition area 2) to get post race lunch food, you had to wait til 11:30 (i finished probably around 9) and walk around to the other side of the lake!!!! we didn't bother. 3) drink station at the START of the run, and the next was probably 1.75 miles in...then obviously at the finish...today wasn't hot, but on a hot day you'd probably want more? surprised, because i hear elite endeavors does really good races...this was good, but i had expected better. but i still enjoyed it!
