  • Lots of volunteers to help?Yes
  • Plenty of drink stations?Yes

  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: The swim, bike, and run courses are nice, flat and fast. 1863 events (3disciplines in MI) did a fantastic job. They were well organized, walked the newbies through the process, were extremely friendly and available for questions, warned everyone about the heat, said they would have plenty of cold drinks and were bringing extra ice, and they did. They organized the local parks department, police, army corp of engineers, etc to make sure every turn, high traffic area, etc had a race "official" present. This was the second year for the Carlyle IL Sprint and Olympic tri and I highly recommend it.

  • Comments: Could have used another aid station on the sprint run course. They didn't know it was gonna be this hot, so a 0930 race start time wasn't good. They promised to move it earlier next year.

  • Comments: Post race they had cookies, crackers, watermelon and sub sandwiches. Also lots of cold water and Gatorade which was needed considering the weather. Overall, I enjoyed the race and would love to do it again next year.
