  • Comments: Aaron has improved the race by a ton from last year. He has listened to the feedback of the athletes and implemented every valid issue/suggestion I've heard. It started with a great packet pickup, well executed race, great post race and awards. I look forward to his future races and hope to be back at this one next year.

  • Comments: Very well organized race except for a nitpick of the mount/dismount line not being clear...maybe that was just me. Post race activities looked good. Looking forward to doing this again in 2011...with a better run.

  • Comments: This race was incredible. It had the vibe of an Ironman branded event (although I have only been to one). Aaron and team did an awesome job at pulling all the feedback in from the last race and making nearly everything happen that could be done to make it better. The timing folks dropped the ball a bit again but I wouldn't hold that against the RD. Food, course set up , transition, drinks, music, awards, SWAG in the packet...excellent. Hopefully this run won't kick my tail next time - I plan to take another shot at this course next year.

  • Comments: Nice safe course, lots of volunteers. Plenty of aid stations and refreshments. Minor drawbacks - lots of walking (from T1 to swim start) and volunteers not knowing where to send you for the swim start. Womens' shirts were awesome, but not listed as an option on the registration site, so getting a shirt that is too small is a bit frustrating. Overall, great race. I'll be back here with a PR in 2011!

  • Comments: Race goals were: 1) see how my body felt from the hard weeks training and couple days easy. 2) I knew I could do 1:15, hoped for 1:10-11 and 1:09 was my dream goal. 3) Take the AG win.

  • Comments: First year for this race. Was disappointed that shop seemed to be closed up for later finishers. They ran out of water, water bottles and towels by the time I finished. They also didn't have a handle on who was left out on the course. They indicated the last person had come in already, but my friend was still out there. Otherwise a nice venue - not overwhelming.

  • Comments: It was a well-run race, especially for a first time event. Found out the story behind some issues that I thought were the fault of the race management, but were NOT... 1. The lack of ice and cold drinks (& beer) was the result of a medical emergency that caused a disruption in activities. (The person is OK, I've been told.) 2. There would've been plenty of pizza, but there were spectators stealing whole pizzas and not just 1 or 2, but as many as 10 and heading to their cars when volunteers were busy. WTH? Everything else was fine.

  • Comments: First race, so nothing to compare it to. But, any questions or issues seemed to have already been addressed by the organizers. Started on time and was nicely supported. I'll look forward to doing it again next year. On one hand, I thought that I'd do better, based on advances made in each of the separate components. Putting them altogether, however, is a different story. Learned a lot of lessons which will be incorporated over the next several months. I'll do some more races and will adjust accordingly if needed. Despite the difficult day, I enjoyed the experience. Lots of good people out there and I was glad to be a part of it. I'm also pleased with the improvements I've made this year, all while dealing with work and family demands. I also realize that I've still got a long way to go.

  • Comments: This is my third race and my first race as an athena. I placed 2nd in athena over 40. I was shocked! You could have knocked me over with a feather. They had no preliminary results for Athenas near the finish or on the wall at the pool so I had no idea. We were moments away from leaving when I told my husband I wanted to cheer on the Athena's. A lot of my friends were still around to celebrate and pose for pics, I was beaming! The group I train with is awesome, three of us took home hardware and the other two are AMAZING athletes. I loved this race because lots of friends were there but I have to say I don't get running out of cups, bottles, water and pizza. And what is with kicking everyone out of the pool area with no explanation?

  • Comments: The organizer kept everyone pretty informed with email updates. I wasn't expecting it to be as well run as it ended up. It sounded like they were going to be very short on the number of volunteers but I never noticed. The post race activities were good and family friendly. The location was good. Definitely a well-run race that I'd do again next year. Thanks to all the volunteers and race organizers.

  • Comments: GREAT RACE! *sarc* Warm beer is warm. It only gets cold if you put ice on it. You need to ice beer before the race starts in order for it to be cold when we finish. If you put ice on the beer after the race some people might not be happy. edit. thankfully, one smart Marine and his wife volunteered and brought a cooler full of ICE COLD BEER!

  • Comments: Was a very well put on race and I will definitely do it again if it fits into next years schedule. I was pleased with my race... was my first ever official 24+mph bike split! Not that I didn't know it already but it really showed that my run has been dragging and I need to step it up during speed work. Thanks to all the volunteers for helping out!
