  • Comments: Volunteers are always great - love them. I tried to thank every police officer I saw holding traffic and everyone offering water (whether I took it or not). I also thanked the few spectators I saw on the course. One note: there are no aid stations on the bike and maybe 2 aid stations on the run - water only. It's a sprint after all, but if you want more, bring it yourself. Good announcing pre-race and for finishers. There were bagels, watermelon, oranges, sports drink, water and something else to eat at the end (more than at the Tupper Lake Tinman HIM in June!) Pint glasses were awarded to the top 3 in each age group category. The AG categories are big, mine was 40-49. So happy the thunderstorms held off this year and despite a prerace rain, the bike course dried up fairly quickly. It was good, I'd do it again.
