  • Organised?No
  • Events on time?No

  • Lots of volunteers to help?No
  • Plenty of drink stations?No

  • Post race activities? Below average
  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: This was my 2nd tri ever (first was a long time ago while I was a freshman in high school) and I think I did really well... I trained for it a LOT (I'm on the Texas A&M Cycling Team and I used to swim competitively) although I really need to work on my running a lot more... Overall I think I did pretty well, but I could have pushed myself harder and gone a lot faster, especially on the run, but you live and learn...

  • Comments: There were not enough aid stations on the run. They said there would be one every mile, but they were about every 3 miles. The race was taken over from last years director on short notice and it showed.

  • Comments: OK, this was a poorly organized race. The swim course changed at the last minute, they didn't have enough markers, the run was on the beach, etc. And they didn't have enough finisher's medals! However, I understand whomever originally was going to put the race on backed out or something, leaving it hanging, and this other group to their credit stepped in and made it happen, so that probably contributed to this.
