  • Comments: The TNT experience was great. I would have ended up quite a bit higher if I hadn't stopped to help a couple people on the bike course. I knew I wasn't going to win anyway or even finish very fast. However, I knew i was going to finish and I figured the people I helped on the course were determined to finish too. Rev3 put on a great event and I would love to do another of their races.

  • Comments: The weather Sunday morning was near perfect for the triathlon The water was wet n the swim and the wetsuit was warm. There were a couple good climbs on the bike, but I also enjoyed cruising the downhills. The run was way more fun with Chad and Karen Hobelmann when I caught them at the turn-around. They kept me going and helped me reach my time goal. I couldn't have done it without them.

  • Comments: Loved this race and am seriously thinking about a repeat visit next year. Great race, saw some of the Pros again, saw Justin race his first as a Pro. Got to finally meet Eric Wynn and again realized how big the Blazeman community is!

  • Comments: Only things I would suggest is to use signs for the Oly/Half diverge on the bike, and hand out a couple of beers after.

  • Comments: Was a great weekend. Trip home sucked, but wore the compression all the way home and feel pretty good, except for some tight calves. Passed lots of REV3 folks on the way back north, at least my bike wasn't out in the rain the entire way. Great MG meeting race. Ready for next year.

  • Comments: Rev 3 puts on a great race. It's not perfect but still a great race. I like a lot of the things they do. Looking forward to seeing all the video and pictures that the Rev3 folks took. This was also a SWBKRUN Mentor group meet up so that made it an even better race. Looking forward to the next one.

  • Comments: Rev3 is the real deal. If you haven't had the pleasure of doing a Rev3 event yet, I highly recommend it. I assume it's even better if you have children, as there is tons of stuff for them to do.

  • Comments: I enjoyed the course although I did not realize how hilly the bike ride was. That was a real rude awakening to weight loss.
