  • Comments: I loved this race! The venue is in a nature reserve area up near Heber Utah and is beautiful. The organizers were very good and really made for a great race. At the pre race briefing, I felt like I was at the comedy club, these guys are funny! The announcer let us know that the olympic racers were to go first, then the rabbit, then the sprints. Since nobody really understood what the rabbit was the announcer explained that it's his brother and that he is giving him a 15 minute lead. If you were the first to catch the rabbit, you win a 20.00 gift card. Anybody else to pass the rabbit throughout the day received a 10.00 gift card. It made for a good time. I would definitely do this race again and actually plan on it next year. It is the most fun that I've had in a Sprint triathlon.

  • Comments: Another nice event by RaceTri, they are well organized and have a lot of volunteers. I just wasn't mentally into this race...too many races this month wiped me out.

  • Comments: LOVED THIS RACE. It was very scenic. Really fast and fun, too. Definitely will put it on my must-do-again list. Another company does the same course there at Jordanelle Reservoir later in the summer so I might have to do that one. The rewarding part of the race came afterward as I found out that I'd finished second in the Clydesdale Division. While there were only two other big boys in the category, I don't care. It felt AWESOME to hear my name called as a second-place finisher. The medals ceremony was a bit discombobulated - they did a different age group after announcing the Clydesdale winner - but I had a huge smile and was overcome by a feeling of accomplishment and sheer joy when my name was announced. And it's about time I finished on the podium - this was ONLY my tenth race! Hopefully, it will happen again someday. Hopefully, however, I won't be competing in the Clydesdale category when I do win another medal :) Overall: 70 of 140 (Just call me Mr. MOP!) Men: 52 of 78 (I'll
