  • Comments: OnUrMark always put on a great race and this was no exception. The attention to detail cannot be beat. It was my own stupidity that kept me from getting a good time on the run and a mistake i won't make again.

  • Comments: First triathlon, so it's hard to compare to others -- it was very well run, based on my experience with running races. The swim started maybe 20 minutes late, but it wasn't a big deal to me (it might have been if I'd been already staged in the water though).

  • Comments: Good race to kick off the season. It was well organized, but the swim start was a little chaotic, and the lady trying to coordinate things really needed a PA system as it was pretty impossible to hear her. Also, time between waves was a little too tight. I was in the back of the chute, and just barely made it to the start line when my wave took off. I'm sure some of the stragglers got caught unaware!

  • Comments: This is my 3rd tri, but I have also done a du and and a few running races. This was the best so far. Great venue, volunteers, awesome police presence on the bike course, post-race food and beer. A+ all around. THANKS!!!

  • Comments: Great race, Great location and Great weather. This was my 3rd Onurmark event over last three race seasons and they've all been quality races, well organized, good info, good courses, good safety and pretty good food after the race. I gotta say, the blue tech shirt is probably my favorite shirt I've received in a race.

  • Comments: I liked this race. The area is nice, the volunteers attentive. I'd like to see more police/safety along the bike portion, but other than that it was wonderful. The post race food was wonderful, the massages divine, and I LOVE the hardware. Oh, and I placed third in the Athena division so I got a trophy! Woot!

  • Comments: I was going to rate a 4 because of the wave conditions but OUM had no control over this. I felt the race was very organized, clean and well manned with volunteers.

  • Comments: I heard comments about not having enough lifeguards on the swim, but I didn't notice that myself. I was too focused on getting through the surf.

  • Comments: This was the first time this tri was held so it appeared to go well given that consideration. It was fairly well organized though the opening of the transition area could be been faster once it was opened, especially with the looming storm clouds coming from the west.... This event and the pre-race clinic held two weeks before the race were good experiences for me and I am glad I did them. The swim in Galveston Bay was a new thing for me and was a highlight. The bike and run presented new planned and unplanned challenges that helped me grow and learn from the experience. It was a good first race for the season to build on and improve.

  • Comments: Aaron and the guys did a really nice job with this being the inaugural race. I will do this again next year, probably do the Oly to get to ride a boat and swim the current in.

  • Comments: What an amazing race! I thought Aaron and the gang did a fantastic job putting together a wonderful inaugural race that I look forward to doing again in the future. I was disappointed that I didn't get a picture on the podium (not sure I'll get a chance ever again), but there's really nothing that can be done about that nasty weather that rolled in. Overall, this was a great start to my first full season of triathlon.
