I was surprised that you could not find any water at the start but one of the teams was kind enough to give me some vitamin water. To use race day packet pick up you had to pay $20, shame they don't allow for race day pick up.

  • Comments: This was only my 2nd Olympic distance race and first in 3 years. I signed up kind of late and didn't treat it as an "A" race and it showed. It was humbling not to have anything for the run because that is my strongest area. Overall a very good time. This has been my best year in triathlon mainly because of the friends I have made through BT. Before this year I did everything on my own but now I have friends to train with, race with, get advice from , etc. I really appreciate everything BT has done for me this year.

  • Comments: Good race, very well organized and neat little town to ride around. Hot Hot hot! Water being 85 degrees and the outside temps near 90 makes it a little hard to race. I guess I have to get used to this for Eagleman then.

  • Comments: CGI put on a great event. Thanks to everybody involved. One thing that irritated me -- and it was not the organizers' fault -- was all the gu packets I saw discarded on the bike course. The organizers explicitly asked that this not be done. The course goes through MD state lands at one point (isn't it Elk Neck State Park?). I hate to see this event shutdown because MD DNR complains. How hard is it to put the rolled-up empty in the leg of your shorts or the pocket it came out of?

  • Comments: Although I was very disappointed in the food (compared to NJ State this year, which was good) and the lack of water available pre-race, I do enjoy the events cgi puts on. Very organized, always on-time and a good competitive field. Parking was a bit confusing and I had a rather upset local ask me if the race directors "instructed us to park here because church was a nightmare." Of course at 530am, I, nor the other participants realized we parked in a church parking lot, which isn't the best place to park on a sunday.
