  • Organised?
  • Events on time?

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

  • Post race activities?
  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: The previous event organizers quit at the end of last season and the current people came together to try to keep the race alive. Some details through the event were a bit disorganized but it was all getting done. There was a lot of enthusiasm and energy, and lots of great volunteers. If they keep doing it, experience will help to polish up the whole show.

  • Overall course based on my ability: Too hard

  • Comments: The new race director made plenty of changes for the better this year. Well organized, lots of volunteers, pretty amazing for his first year doing this. Could have used a couple of more aid stations on the run. Aid station #3 on the bike had no water, only HEED! That messed me up a bit. The race sponsors really stepped up with the raffle prices. I think at least 5 wetsuits were given out, plus a bike. Yeah, a brand new bike. Sweet. I won the price just before the bike - got a new race number belt and a running hydration pack. Whizzy!

  • Comments: Overall, a great race. I did see quite a few flats other than mine, and I know there were lots at the same course last year...not sure what the deal is on that, but otherwise it was very well organized.

  • Comments: Hard course, everyone says this is a good prep for IMC b/c it's so hilly. Glad to know I did one of the harder courses.
