  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: Very low-key local race with good support and good experienced crew. I wish they had done age-group markings on bodies, but frankly I don't think I could've caught first place. I liked getting a medal. The post-race food was very healthy, too. I didn't like the gravel under the transition area racks. That hurt my feet!!

  • Comments: My tech shirt has a big snag in the front of it. I didn't look at it there. Emailed RD to see if there are any extras.

  • Comments: Have only done one other and watched another. At both races, there were more people in the water (jet skis, etc.) Snacks were kind of limited: 2 apple slices, 2 orange slices, dixie cups of chex mix and some cheap cookies. They were handed to us so no seconds! Limited water as well. One bottle handed to each racer. No music either. Don't have a lot to compare it on, but the other races were way more fun!

  • Comments: My first tris, in 1984 and 1985 were this race. It was good to get back and do a lot better than my first two cracks at it.

  • Comments: On the plus side, it started almost on time, there were plenty of volunteers and the scenery was breathtaking. On the other hand, I wish they would have gotten together on the turn around so that we could get some much needed water and they could've had a little bit more in the way of post race festivities.
