  • Comments: This was a great running race for me and I really was happy with the end result. I have been biking more, but I still need to get on it more. I have one more race this season I could not wait for it. This time no wetsuite and I am going to bike more and work on the transitions.

  • Comments: Recommended. The town is pretty, the lake is great, the race is well run. It's held in the center of a picturesque lake town with some nice looking shops and restaraunts and seems like a nice weekend getaway. I'm told hotel rooms go very quick. Parking is very close to check-in and transition. The swim exit is also right next to transition which is nice for a change. The tri is part of a weekend long series of races, including an OWS and a 5k. The number of volunteers and their enthusiasm was outstanding. The weather this year was rough as we got the remnants of a tropical storm but they were still out there in big numbers. Every turn on the bike course was well covered. I'll definitely be back to do this race.

  • Comments: Decent food options- the chicken soup really hit the spot. Plus there were the standards of the pizza, fruit, bagels. The awards for age group places were a glass imprinted w/ the race logo and a pair of thorlo socks. It didn't matter whether you placed 1st or 3rd, you got the same thing. There were no medals for anyone. This was the second year for this race and my second year doing it. If it fits w/ my schedule, I would do it again.
