  • Comments: Considering there were 8000 people at this race, and logistically, it was difficult due to its size, it was very well organized. I have to say that I don't have a single complaint about how the race was run, other than I didn't like having the run portion on the grass next to the paved trail WTF??

  • Comments: My goal coming into this race was to make the top 10 in my age group and I ended up 10th! Overall, it wasn't as good of a race as Pleasant Prairie but I was happy with it. The best part of it, even over taking 10th, was that after the swim I passes a ton of people and NO ONE PASSED ME in the bike or run!

  • Comments: For as many racers as there are this race is very well organized and run. There was plenty of aid stations on the run (at least for the sprint) and things started on time.

  • Comments: High entry cost. Bad goody bag. Run out from swim on bad terrain. Massive wait to get back into transition. Riding on LSD was fun. Overall not sure I'd do it again.

  • Comments: I had a lot of fun at this race. It was my first Triathlon but I did not feel overly nervous. My one complaint is the surface from the exit point of the swim into the transition area. The trail was very rough, lots of rocks, and even pieces of broken glass. I saw several people bleeding from small cuts in their feet in transition. Other than that, I can't wait for my next triathlon!
