  • Comments: Great race - it's a textbook study in how to organize a race. Now if they would only plant some trees along the run, it would be perfect!

  • Comments: This is my third time doing this race, and it gets better every year. So well organized, great volunteers, great venue, etc. It's no wonder it sells out so quickly every year.

  • Comments: The race is always well run with the parachuters that hold the flag through the awards. And it's always great to race in Boulder with a lot of friends. I was more nervous for this race than I had been for my previous two because even though it's a sprint, there's real competition and it has a big event feel to it.

  • Comments: This is one of my favorite races and I am blessed that I got to do it again. I took 7 minutes off my time in 05 and you can't really be upset with that can you? Next year, I'll bust the 2:00 mark. Thanks to all the Colorado Bters for making me feel welcomed again. Fabulous race and good times had by all.

  • Comments: Really love the whole 5439 series races. I'm not crazy about sprints though and I wish there was more food. By the time I got to the tent a lot of stuff was gone. Overall though, well organized and worth it!!

  • Comments: It was such an awesome day. My first triathlon and my daughter came out from Chicago to do it with me. We had sisters, grand-kids, nephews, daughters, all kinds of relatives lining the course to cheer for us. Jeff, my strength/core trainer from 24 Hour Fitness was there, Coach Mary and Coach Charley, lots of TNT friends, Beka and Kelvin, amazing support. My cup runneth over.

  • Comments: I love the Boulder series and had a great time today. Always fun to see basically every triathlete I know from Colorado come out to race on the same day.

  • Comments: I did better than expected in both swim & bike so I am very happy with those times. If I had run at my goal pace (8'/mile) I would only have gained 4 spots although I would have gone under 1:30 which I was hoping to do. This race is so well run everyone feels like a pro and overall considering how competative of a field it is I am very pleased - took off 6' from last years time and still left myself room to improve & had fun too.

  • Comments: I love this race. It's got a great feel to it. If I had one bone to pick it'd be the run course. It's exposed, the surface is rough and the heat seems to reflect right off the trail. Tough courses make for great races though, so would I change it? Probably not.

  • Comments: Overall I guess it was a good race since I beat last years time by two minutes but I was hoping for sub 1:25 today. T2 definitely cost me one of the minutes and I guess the other minute would be split between the bike and run.

  • Comments: Simply a wonderful race. Barry's really got this fine-tuned now with the new race buoys, and a much more lively Expo. It was really fun to see finisher's faces as they were awarded their silly little medals. What fun, and a personal best! Nothing to complain about there. Already looking forward to next year's race (after a nap...).

  • Comments: Hung out with Markdills38, juliapurr, swgtri, himself, luv2ride, macdaddy, and blackbud. CoGirl made a guest appearance too. The post-race hang out really makes the day for me. BT is full of so many cool people! ;) And, this is the best race I know of.

  • Comments: If you're a runner in Colorado, you HAVE to do the BolderBoulder. If you're a triathlete in Colorado, you HAVE to do the 5430 Sprint. The great thing about it is that it's a big enough race to attract some very fast competitors and it's short enough that it's very do-able for newbies.

  • Comments: The Rattlesnake was pretty good but this gave it a pretty good run for the money. I loved the bike coarse and the run was a little exposed but overall it was a good race.

  • Comments: The race was really well organized, so that made it great for me as a beginner to figure out what was going and where I needed to be at any point in time. Overall I was happy with my performance. I had thought that if I had a good race I should be able to finish ~1:45 and I was just under that. Now after having finished one, I think I can focus on really pushing myself in the next race.
