  • Comments: This was a fun event and I only have one other tri to compare it to. The volunteers were nice and everything was well-organized. The setting is gorgeous and it's a very nice park. If I were to suggest changes it would be to have some patrolling of the roads (there were some REALLY fast drivers out there who were either oblivious to the race or perhaps wouldn't have minded taking a few of us out) and more water both on the run course and at the finish. Also the ability to register online would be handy rather than having to mail in the registration. It was fun, though, and a really great experience for me!

  • Comments: This race was awesome! I will be back next year. It was well organized and very fun. My family had a great time hanging out in the park watching the action. I was bummed out that we had to rush in and then rush right out. I wasn't able to met up with anyone from BT. Maybe next time. My goal was to finish in the 1:25 range so I was really happy with my finish time.

  • Comments: The volunteers were pretty friendly. I guess I was expecting more water stations on the run but that could just be me. I really enjoyed the small town and community feel of the race. People were friendly. Packet pick up was really smooth. I liked the after race nosh - watermelon, oranges, bananas and bagels. I didn't see water but had my own. The kids tri was awesome and it was great to see a couple of 14 - 16 yo's out on the course with the rest of us. A really great day and great first tri experience for me!

  • Comments: THIS RACE WAS AWESOME!!! The course was fun, it was well-organized, the weather was great, people were nice. Really can't find anything wrong, except the buoys were too small for the sun factor. I will most definitely be back again next year! PIX in my album titled Clear Lake Triathlon 2008
