  • Comments: This race was a disappointment to me. Based on my past times and last year's results I thought I had a chance to make top 5 in my AG. But no, I didn't even make top 10 or top half. I wasn't set mentally b/c of the loooong time it took to get into the park and then issues with the CO2 thing not working right plus the super hot conditions all-around. The course was easy, but it still got to me. I'm very disappointed with this. And I really need to do something about my running. Its getting super depressing that I could do so much better if I could only run faster.

  • Comments: This was the first time I did this race and I liked the course and the volunteers did a great job, but there were a few logistical problems that need to be addressed. If your going to put on an event with 900 or so entrants please rent a few more porta potties and put a few more folks at the water station. Aside from that it was a good race with alot of people.

  • Comments: Alright, so I got weighed in on Saturday because if you race in the USACFRF National Sprint Championship you can still compete in your age group. Unfortunately, I did not realize there were also seperate Clyde/Athena categories for the race. Apparently, I had signed up for Athena and not the USACFRF Championship. This pulled me out of my age group for the race, which was not my intention. I did get second in Athena and would have gotten second in the USACFRF. But, I also would have gotten 3rd in my AG. I am a bit disappointed, but oh well, I met my larger personal goals, so that is what is important.
