  • Comments: I had a blast! A little disappointed with the post race food..there was none! I started at the end of the swim since I was in the novice division so I was one of the last to finish...I wasnt super hungry but a a little. That was minor to me as everything else was awesome, simply awesome. Great venue, great event, awesome athletes all over the place. Everyone was very nice. I gave it my all and have already searched out my next event.....thanks to BT for all the info....big, big help.

  • Comments: Paris Island is a beautiful place to race. It's pretty wild seeing all of the recruits out the whole time you're racing. The only negative this race was the bugs. Once the wind started blowing thogh they weren't too bad.

  • Comments: I really loved this course. I just love the water and the ocean smells and all the marines training and chanting in the background were pretty cool to. I definitely plan on doing this race again. It was fun hanging out with all the Augusta BTers. Also,this was my my hubby's first tri ever (flyingtiger) and I'm so proud of him. He did awesome and so did his training partner, Steve(BlueJack). You guys are going to rock at IMFL!

  • Comments: I improved from last year, won my age group and beat my arch rival. I also had a great time meeting up with folks I hadn't seen since October. Had a fun time traveling with SuzanneS who also had a great race. It is so much fun to race then socialize and see that you are continuing to get faster. A great day. I give this one two thumbs up!!!

  • Comments: I like this race as the first event of the year. It was great seeing Mandy and Flying Tiger get their first race under their belt. I'll be back next year and hope to break 1:10.

  • Comments: OK...like I said before, I've only been training a bit for this race. When I signed up 6 weeks ago and got my @ss off the couch, I made a deal with myself that I'd swim,bike and run 2x a week. And I did it. It's crazy to say, esp. after a season of IM training, but this is probably the most consistent I've ever been in my tri training. The result? A PR over this course by 2.5 minutes, and a 6 minute improvement over last year.
