  • Comments: Best race of the year. I beat my goal in the swim and overall race time. Bike I missed by 2 minutes, run was off by almost 4. Great race overall, individual events need work.

  • Comments: Over the course of my 31 years of doing triathlons, this one is the best! Absolutely enjoyed the hometown feel, high level of organization/professionalism and great camaraderie with other friendly participants. Although Lake Michigan was only 65 degrees and choppy due to windy conditions, there were plenty of lifeguards to keep everyone on course and safe. Truly a memorable event, with lots of support and encouragement at every key point on the course and wonderful food afterwards...highly recommend this triathlon!!

  • Comments: This race was great. It challenged me a lot but at the same time it was great first race. The swim was way out of my league and skill level but if it was a calm day I think I would have been fine.

  • Overall course based on my ability:

  • Comments: tons of support staff out on the water, lots of course marshalls on the bike, big area for the turn around on the bike for the out and back, one aid station on the road for the run and one at the turn so three actual on the run course. Very evident that Sean Ryan and his staff take the time to look at an event from the eyes of all the athletes (from elite to BOPs) as well as from the eyes of the spectators to make sure the experience of the event is top notch. It is like this for any event that i have done that is put on by Sean Ryan and his team.

  • Comments: Really tough swim due to the swells, but otherwise a fantastic course. Long bike ride for a sprint, but gives me room for improvement on the bike.

  • Comments: Can't say it enough, Door County Tri is the BEST around....you have to do it to understand how every single little detail is planned out. Such organization, and it really is a great race. Only bad thing is the water tends to be unpredictable, but race organizers can't do anything about that.

  • Comments: First full triathlon with swim. Only issue was water temperature and maybe a little wave action on big body of water. Otherwise, really fun and VERY well organized race. All of the volunteers were great!!!
