  • Comments: The Danskin Women's Triathlon is in my opinion, one of the best women only events around. It encourages women of all shapes and sizes to challenge themselves and bond with their loved ones. I hope I'm able to do this race every year! It just keeps getting better!

  • Comments: This is a great race for women who would like to start triathlons. It's a fun, light atmosphere with tons and tons and tons of support. It would be nice to have more food than the bagels, oranges and bananas. I was starving!!!

  • Comments: This is a fun race!! Other than the glitch getting in 1st thing, all ran pretty smoothly. One thing that was very noticable was a big change of attutude on the run course. Last year there was lots of hooping, hollering and high-fiving. This year it was down right sedate, I wonder what the differnce was.

  • Comments: This was a great first tri for me. Sally Edwards is such a motivating speaker and she high-fived everyone out of the water and then at the finish line. I loved the amount of support ladies gave each other. I want to do this race again. Oh, and it was really cool meeting the Mosc crew!! I am sorry I didnt get to meet up wth the other ladies!! Go BT!

  • Comments: Seemed pretty well organized to this newbie, though there was a long check in line to get onto the Coast Guard base. Also, the start was delayed by a good 15-20 minutes. Definitely need to get there early to get a bike rack space and check things out. Bring hat, gloves and socks with toes next time, especially if it's cold. They weren't great about enforcing the rules about non-competitors in the transition area and no iPods. Expo the day before was excellent. Food at the end was marginal, though there was lots of water. I will definitely do this again.

  • Comments: Being an all women's race and Karen's first tri, it was a fabulous day! The scene of an all women's race is so great! I had a blast racing with Karen and Julie and managed to improve from two years ago! The expo is pretty good and Sally Edwards is very inspiring and motivational. It's great this is a local race in the sense that we can stay at Karen and Mike's. I think we'll be adding this to the seasonal race calendar.
