• Comments: Hard to say since this was my first race but I had 2 major complaints. First being parking. Yes there was plenty of it but no there was no organization to it. People were blocking others in and parking all over the place. Wish they had had just a few people out there to help out with this. The other was the post race activities. Granted my girlfriend and I finished towards the end of the pack, but the week before in my 5K I was greeted at the finish line with bananas and oranges and water and after this triathlon I had to actively search out an unmanned kiddie pool where I could grab a soda or water and that's it. They did have pizza but that was not what I wanted just afterwards (I guess everyone else had cooled down already). It wasn't awful and I know there's a lot that goes into this but I just expected a tiny bit more in those 2 categories (especially out of a race 15 years old).

• Comments: Well I had a great time at my first triathlon, in quite possibly the greatest college town ever. With overall ranks of 100,104,102 in the swim,bike,run and a finish of 119 I know I need to practice transitions a lot more, really killed my placement. Oh well, off to sign up for another race!

• Comments: I'm giving a 5 because it was a fantastic event. I have nothing to compare it to, but it wasn't lacking anything I would've added. It was very efficient and well-run.
