  • Comments: This was my first time at Island Lake and everything I heard was spot on. Besides that nasty first hill on the run and a few weeds in the lake, I loved the course. Not much Element could do about the early fog and they put our safety first. There were tons of volunteers there, packet pick up and marking was a breeze, transition area worked well...as a new triathlete I felt at ease and the setup made it easy to know exactly where to go. Wasn't terribly impressed with the post race meal and a finisher's medal would have been a cool touch, but all in all, Element did a great job!

  • Comments: I was bummed because my goal for this race was to be in the top 3 females....and I DID IT! I was 3rd female overall! BT still doesn't have a place for gender results. The bummed part was that this RD doesn't recognize 2nd and 3rd overall, just 1st in each gender. However, I did win something I hadn't even considered and didn't know was presented and that was the #1 FEMALE MASTERS!! This whole being 40 (technically not for a few more months) thing is not so bad!
