  • Comments: I am impressed with how well organized this race was. It was a huge number of people to get through the course. I had read that 60% of the participants were first timers - I think it is very cool that this event could motivate so many to get out and put in the time and effort to make it across the finish line.

  • Overall course based on my ability:

  • Comments: I was very nervous coming into this race. One, for the lack of hard training; and two, knowing how hard this race was going to be. To date this was the longest distance for me. I am so extemely pleased with how well I did. My fears of the bike ride were bigger than it actually was. This has been the best and hardest race I've done. I'm so glad that Klynne came and was at the finish to cheer me on! Kevin and the girls were so supportive and was really great to have my mom come and see me finsih so strong. Glad Brenda decided to do this race with me or I would have never registered.

  • Overall course based on my ability: Too hard

  • Comments: Iron Girl was my first Sprint. It was extremely well run and volunteers were very nice and helpful. Traffic control was very good, although there were a few cars on the bike course from time to time. Not too bad. Columbia Triathlon Association should be applauded for the number of training sessions they held before the race. I will do this one next year!

  • Overall course based on my ability: Too hard

  • Comments: Loved it and had a great time! Smiled and thanked all the volunteers and spectators and cops directing traffic. 50% of the participants entered this as their first triathlon - this was my first since I've been an adult. I had a very hard time with the hills, but that was because I didn't train like I should have. I'm a hill wuss. Great fan support and very organized. I would like to do the race again next year and better my time. Maybe I can convince my daughter to do it with me. She was my photographer today. She and my husband were my cheering section. I will upload pics if they're not too embarassing! :)
