  • Comments: Buffalo does a great job with most things, lot's of volunteers, orgnaized, on time, etc. The real issue is the size of the race and the congestion early & late on the bike. I knew what to expect so handled it well. Being last Oly wave off doesn't help.

  • Comments: overall i was 1 minute slower than last year. My beginning of the year goal for this race was 2:15. It was a good evaluation of my current fitness level, and a motivator for the future. I also think it is a not cool that they ran out of both finisher medals and water. That really disappoints me. I think the lack of attention to the racers that come in later is upsetting. everyone paid the same entry, everyone should get the same treatment.

  • Comments: Actually I thought the race was pretty well done. I think it's not the race for ME, but it's a good race. My only disappointment was the feeling at the end. I hate being towards the end and, for the first time ever, no one offered to help with my chip. No one gave me a medal (just realized this). No water was offered. That's a bummer. They put on a good food spread, but I skipped it this year because the line was super long.
