  • Overall course based on my ability:

  • Comments: The volunteers were incredible. I can't say enough about how friendly and helpful everyone was. It was a long, hot day and everyone at every aid station was cheering, helpful and very friendly. This race is very tough though. Lots of climbing, hot and definitely the hardest tri I've ever done.

  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: It was a hot, hot, hot day. The aid stations did an outstanding job of making sure there was ice, cold rags, and cold water at every station for everyone, not just the front runners. My one complaint - end of the race there was zero food. unless you call orange slices and a dry bagel food, but there was free beer at the end. I LOVE that we were given all the beer we wanted to drink so we could sit in the lake and drink out beer, but maybe wasn't the smartest choice and the lack of any food at all, especially given we were to far out of town is a little disappointing. On the other hand, they were handing out IVs like candy for anyone that wanted one just because.
