  • Comments: Always a good race. Organized, on time and a fun atmosphere. I'm beginning to wonder if they shouldn't have a cut-off for the # of total contestants. It takes a long time to get everyone through. There were probably one too many water stops on the relatively short run course (3!) From a few reports I heard, it sound as if they could have used some more road marshals at some intersections. Otherwise a good race. Some Buffalo Bills players and coaches raced today, which seemed to bring some additional excitement to the day.

  • Comments: There were plenty of aid stations on both the run and the bike (unusual for the distance), but the intersections and cross roads lacked the attendants they had last year. Other wise it was a pretty good race and Score-This always does a good job.

  • Comments: The volunteers and race organizers generally did a good job. I was very surprised, however, that there were no course marshals at a couple of intersections. Especially the one at 64 and Thornell road, at the stop light. I was very lucky and got a green light when I came through there. I'm not sure everyone was so lucky.

  • Comments: Fun race, I say now. I was 4:30 faster then the same race two years ago. So I'm pleased. Bike ride felt strong. Run was disappointing until I learned it was like 3.43 miles. Some day I'll enjoy the run. I do on it's own. Missed my goals by seconds again. sub 1:30. Great to meet Heidi's Mom, Kam's gang, and the rest of BT'ers and Master swimmers. Glad I decided to do this race at the last minute. Good training for transitions and remaining calm.
