  • Comments: I loved this race and I'll do it every year from now on. It was well run, beautiful, and friendly. I've been scared to race with "the big boys and girls of Boulder" but it was a fun group. It was so nice to have the huge BT contingent there...Ben, Susan, Ted, Ocky, Shannon, Mark, Drew, Dan, Ray, Drew, Melinda, Andria, Rebecca, Julia, Chris, etc...I'm sorry, but I can't remember everyone. We missed Stacie, of course.

  • Comments: I will venture to say that the Boulder series attracts some of the BEST triathletes of just about anywhere. Every agegroup is STACKED. Congrats to my buddy and rival, Mark Dillard for placing 4th in our AG and handing me my ass this week! Also to Julia Purrington for yet another great race and taking 3rd in her age group and to every BTer who raced and to those who came out to support us. I heard my name called "GO DICK DIME" more than at any race I can remember. That was so sweet! Anyway, I'm happy. I'm having a great season and although i would have liked to place higher, I feel like the benefits of this race will be apparent as soon as next week at the Tri The Creek Sprint.

  • Comments: Just a great race all around. SO good to see all the Bt'ers cheering and signing the poster for Stacie and just having a good time at a Triathlon! Perfect weather as well. The only other thing I wanted was to podium! Damn close. Faast dudes out there. I need to remember my main goal in IMAZ. So I am sticking to the plan! Thanks Mr. Ricci. Well planned. I beat last years time by 30 seconds. I wanted 1 minute but I will take it. Looked back at the results and I was bumped up to 4th. I knew I was 4th all along. Somebody must have screwed something up.

  • Comments: For my first real triathlon, this appears to be a very well run event (compared to what I've seen in prior running races). It seems like a good event to start the season for the experienced triathlete, as well as a great event for newbies like myself to give it a go.

  • Comments: It was fun to get out there and see what I could do with all this IM training behind me. And as always it was fun to hang out with everyone. And Julia took 3rd in her AG - she rocks! The swim kind of hurt my confidence going into Germany but I have to remember I'll be taking it a bit easier there. Not good news since I wasn't very fast here but the whole goal there is just to get out of the water.

  • Comments: Overall, I treated this like a long training day. I did race, but didn't push myself to the limit. I wanted to enjoy my race and other than the swim, my mission was successful. It was great to see all the BTr's and was happy we could do the balloon send-off and card for Stacie. I will definitely do this race again sometime, and I will conquer the complexities of the group wave start swim. :) This was a great father's day event for me. My wife and daughter and In-Laws got to come see me race and all had a good time.

  • Overall course based on my ability: Too easy

  • Comments: I'm very pleased with this race. Hard to believe that I took about 5 minutes off my time and that I'm faster at 46 than 45 (which was faster than 44). Nice to see that something other than my spare tire and hairloss is making forward progress. Barry and Jodee are simply wonderful, and put on an incredible race. It's particularly gratifying to see so many people participating who really are new to the sport. This was the first race that I've attended where I was totally calm, thinking, "OK... I've done this before... a lot... so this is going to be pretty straightforward." I've never been that calm before, and it helps to be so relaxed. Looking forward to the next one!
