  • Comments: Overall I am happy with my results. My first Oly. Even though my run sucked, I made up for it in the swim and bike and still hit my goal. Next time will be better. Team Magic is a great race organizer.

  • Comments: For my first race I think I did well. I learned a lot and wish this was not my last race of the season. I am planning to build my base up a lot over the winter months.

  • Comments: I think in years past Ive rated this race a 5. This year a 4 and slipping fast. First off I was denied a bottle of water by a volunteer during the expo the day before. Apparently those were specifically for the volunteers. I RESPECT the volunteers whole heartedly and would carry a case from the truck to refill the cooler, if needed. but to deny an athlete a bottle of water IN THE ATHLETE TENT-really are they that scarce-RUDE. I am also a SWAG SNOB, mostly BECAUSE OF THIS RACE. I was disappointed by: The cheap swim caps-(AWESOME last year-even for a cap) The POSTCARD we were supposed to attach to our stem-with safety pins or zipties that they ran out of. (sticker last year as part of the tritats kit) The ONE volunteer signing athletes in. One water bottle and one gel The tritat package was smaller-only numbers for arms and leg. (last year was cap sticker, body sticker bike sticker, emergency bike sticker, wristband, team in training sponsor sticker...) The QR bike was a giveaway before,

  • Comments: The race is very very well run. Swim start was much better organized than the last time I did the race (2010). Now if they could clear up the start order (mine was far from the only one screwed up), I'd give them an A+. As I look back over the splits, this was actually a pretty typical Oly for me, even though it didn't feel that way. The swim felt fast b/c I was passing so many people, but in fact it was just average, and as it happens in Olys, a strong bike and run just isn't enough to make up for a mediocre swim. I got '2nd' in AG, but only because the top three masters overall were M40-44. Actually AG placement was 5th.
