  • Comments: I really enjoyed myself and I will go back there next year for sure. A great race to start the season. Sadly people don't always realized that this is a race and they just cross runners/riders path like there was nothing wrong, not sure what we could do to change this. They also had some problem with the timing chip for the women, sadly none of them have their swim and bike split :(

  • Overall course based on my ability: Too easy

  • Comments: Hmm, there were quite a few problems with the way this race was organized. First off, the people directing traffic into the race parking had NO idea what they were doing. So frustrating. I unnecessarily parked 25 minutes away from the race site because of this. Secondly, the timing chips were set off if you crossed the line entering the transition station, even though you had not started your race yet. This made it impossible to know your swim or your bike times. Very very crappy. Other than that, I absolutely loved the race. Perfect temperature, just the right amount of people, well split up. I will definitely be doing this one again, even if it is shorter than what I'd ideally like to be racing. It was just fun!
