  • Comments: Very well organized. Love all the free stuff. I did this race because it was all women and the free mentor's. My mentor was great - better then I expected! She was there at the finish line, had us over to train a few times, provided good info, and always answered questions. I love the triathlon community, everyone is very supporting. I don't see the elitism I see with other sports. That may be just those I was exposed to though? It seems more "swim/bike/run YOUR race" then always win win win. I thought the race was expensive ($115). I'd like to do it again next year, but that may hold me back.

  • Comments: First off, initially I hadn't been sure about an all-woman's tri. MOstly because, well, I'd already done a unisex one on the same course. But due to my unhappiness with my results last time, I wanted another go at it. I thought the race was really well-run. The pre-race expo was jam packed with stuff (not as much free goodies as the Philly Insurance Tri, but lots more vendors selling good stuff). And the race volunteers were awesome. There was some confusion about the swim start, but it got sorted out. Everyone seemed really great and helpful, and the food at the end rocked, there was tons of it. I thought this was a great event with some great schwag. We got an awesome handbottle for running with from Nathan Sports and a really nice wicky tee. Overall a good race, though I don't think I'd do it again since it's pretty similar to the Philadelphia INsurance race.

  • Comments: You got a nice finishers medal and cheesy TYR gear bag. They had french toast, soda, water ice and all the normal food goodies afterward. The only thing I didn't like was that they could have combined the waves some so that the last wave wasn't 45 minutes after the first. I started 35 minutes after the first whistle.
