  • Comments: It seems that Mike the RD is getting his sh!t together. This year was better than last from an organizational standpoint. I'd love to know the reason behind the dismount and mount line thing, but that is the way it is. So, know the course and race the course, ie Lesson #3.

  • Comments: RD seems to be getting better, since year one for him was a cluster and this was not. This is the local race, 5 miles from the house and even if I quit racing, I'll probably still do this race.

  • Comments: The race seemed a bit less prepared this year. I think the new RD got quite an education. This has to be a tough job and the previous RD was really good. He has a lot to live up to and I can't complain, since there is a learning curve. More volunteers on time would have been helpful, but I think he learned that.

  • Comments: Great venue, fast course but it could be better. Need more restrooms/porta-potties and better post race food.

  • Comments: Good race but it is a small race. Not much in the way of food. Also could of had a water station within the first 1/2 mile of the run or right after T2. I'll be back.

  • Comments: Major restroom issues - No toilet paper in men's or women's restrooms, no porti-potties anywhere. Nearest restroom to transition was several 100 yards off the course. Could have used at least 1 more water station, 2 would be great due to the lack of shade on the run course.

  • Comments: Well organized race. Great volunteers. Like the course. DFL in my age group by about 20 minutes, but probably would have been last even without the flat. Still it was embarrassing to finish over two hours. Obviously disappointed with results, but was happy with my swim up until the great buoy debacle. The run was frustrating because I couldn't reach down to get myself going. Had just read an article by Sam McGlone in Triathlete Magazine the night before about getting your mind to deal with the pain during the run, but I wasn't able to do that. Disappointed in myself over that. Still have lots of work to do on bike and run. My training has been more consistent over the last few months than ever, so still feel good about things going forward. Having a bad triathlon on the beach in Florida is still way better than a day on the couch.
