  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: Loved the course, but post race was lacking. Only water to drink and bananas to eat. Seemed strange. There were some kids selling gatorade, but they didn't seem affiliated with the race. It was awesome to see Jarrod Shoemaker there, as well as team Hoyt.

  • Overall course based on my ability: Too hard

  • Comments: From a participant standpoint the 2 transition areas is a little challenging. Swim course was fine. The bike and run courses were challenging (very hilly). Satisfied to finish. Just need to temper expectaions by factoring in the race venue.

  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: The two transition areas were confusing and poorly organized. Made it difficult to remember where your stuff was and the long T1 was slower than I'd like. Having multiple bike and run loops was confusing as well and a few people got lost. I probably won't do this race again.

  • Comments: This is a great race - it's very well run and definitely worth doing. Yes, the course is slightly hilly but everyone has to do it and there are definite benefits to doing looped courses. I hope to be back next year.

  • Overall course based on my ability: Too hard

  • Comments: Very difficult course. Not enough aid stations on the run. No aid stations on the bike. My wife liked the multiple loops. If she missed me once, she was able to see me again. It was very nice having a race so close to my house.
