  • Comments: Pros: 2.4 mile open water swim at the beach. We could tack it onto a visit with Karen and Mike. OK long sleeved shirt. Bag check at race site (although the volunteers at the timing chip table didn't know about it). Nice location - sandy beach entry and clean, open water. Cons: Lack of restrooms. Didn't start on time. Timing system seemed to have issues. I would probably do this race again if it happened to work out with our schedule. I don't think I'd go out of my way to fit it in. It was great to get an OWS in though.

  • Comments: There were zero porta pottys and the 1 bathroom they had at the park was quickly inoperable. Hardly any food at the finish for almost 500 racers and little dixie cups of water. I heard that almost 200 folks signed up yesterday and today so maybe it was too late to do anything about the packed house.
