  • Overall course based on my ability: Too hard

  • Comments: Race organiztion from the expo on was sketchy. Soo many odd choices by the race organizers. My overall experience was not positive. BTW did I mention there was no Clyde division. WTF! One of the biggest races in the country without this division. I have been to races 1/4 of this size with 20+ clydes participating.

  • Comments: Overall, I am satisfied with the race. While I am not in the shape I was in a year ago, my performance was similar to the one I had at Malibu last September. I have some work to do before the season finale in South Carolina, but I think this ‘walk through’ demonstrated that I am on my way back. In all, it was a well run event. However, due to the size and the site location, it was challenging. Things were spread out and very crowded, from the expo, to transition, and event start and end points. Nice to do once, but I don’t think I would return. For being a single transition race (as opposed to point to point), it wasn’t as spectator friendly as I would have expected.
