  • Comments: Overall good race, everyone was so friendly and things were well organized. i know there are parts of this race report that sound negative, it's just that this whole sport is an eye opener to me. I have been an athlete all my life (soccer, basketball, lacrosse, softball), but racing is a TOTALLY different animal. i'm a very competitive person, but with this sport it's not really about the competition, it's about overcoming physical endurance and mental obstacles. the only competition should be with yourself and your personal goals, everyone else there wants you to do well too! this is something i need to learn so i dont get down on myself. look at me - i am now a triathlete, and i am proud. and, yes, i will tri again!

  • Comments: I finished with a total time of 1:46:47. That put me 220/404 overall and 30/43 in my age group (35-39). That’s a solid middle of the pack placing and I’m pretty happy with that. We got very cool finishers medals (yay!) and lots of good food afterwards (another yay!). Jeremy did a great job running from place to place to watch me. He’s the best! This was a GREAT race and I'm sorry that we won't be here next year to do it again. Hat's off to the organizers!

  • Comments: I was very impressed with this race. It was very organized, the race announcer got everyone psyched as we were waiting in the water, there were lots of volunteers, they had the road closed to traffic, and the overall vibe was positive and fun.
