  • Comments: This is a great race! Very well done and lots of nice little extras. Great BT presence too! So nice to see everyone! As a follow up, I set a new PR in T3 for downing my Like It size of mint chocolate chip at ColdStone. I'm sure it was no more than 1:30. Yummy.

  • Comments: This race gets better every year! The people are friendly and helpful, the cops were great with traffic control. They had lots of post-race food, festivities, and door prizes! I won a spinervals DVD - which will help me go even faster on the bike next year! It was great knowing that we had 23 BTers there! I beat my best bike & run time - woohoo!!! New PRs!!!

  • Comments: Another superb year at MinneMan. Bill does an outstanding job in making sure things go smoothly, and everyone has fun. Perfect weather conditions, too! My only complaint is the ugly t-shirt. I'd gladly trade in the t-shirt and the nice running hat for a technical t-shirt with a small MinneMan logo on the breast or sleeve.

  • Comments: I wish I could have completed this race so bad. It was great seeing the smiles and all the happy b.t.ers after the race. I was extremely happy for you all and am so glad you all had a great race day. The great thing about this is....Heart of the Lakes is only 2 weeks away. Side note. I want to give a big hand to Gear West. I showed up at their very busy facilty and within 30 minutes they had changed my spoke and trued the wheel.Grand total $15.00. Unfortunately he said the next spoke could snap tommorow because of wheel fatigue or I could have many miles left. Said if another one goes it is time to get new wheels. Now that will be on my mind everytime I ride.

  • Comments: This is only my second race and I improved my time. I also felt more organized, less nervous, and better prepared mentally. I wasn't as prepared physically, due to injury and vacation in the last month, but I am psyched to up the training and get ready for Chisago Lakes in July.
