  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: Love the new start method. Don't like the bike finish (not the normal finish which has been modified to account for road construction). The climb up Old Stage is challenging - may have taken a lot out of me - more than I thought.

  • Comments: peak is what it is - a harder-than-average Olympic. pissed that the bike course was shortened due to the stupid construction on the diagonal, pissed that I got some cheap t-shirt and not a tech tee, cranky that the volunteer on the stage aid station couldn't get me my water bottle. I think if I ever want to do well at this race, i'm gonna have to train for it.

  • Comments: Compared to last year and the year before, I felt like this race wasn't really as clear with things. The race website wasn't updated, you really had to check facebook to get current info, which I find really annoying. Even the race results are still not posted on the website, but they posted a link on facebook today (morning after race). Also in the previous two years they had a video intro telling athletes what to expect and about the course and the rules, they didn't have that this year, which really would have been nice since there was a course change from the construction. They did hand out a sheet with athlete info with the race packet, but they weren't really clear about the swim course (turn is at the red buoys) and I didn't hear any warnings about not falling into the canal by the run course (not that anyone has fallen in ever, but still). Also, I placed second in the Athena division and I didn't get an award, or even an announcement. That sucks. But that's not exactly
