  • Comments: Good race, especially for the first year. Biggest problem was probably the road that led to the start/finish/transition was a cluster-F, with bikes leaving and coming back on it, and runners doing the same, and nobody really knowing where they were supposed to be. But overall, it was done well.

  • Comments: Dismount line could have been marked better. The section leading in and out of course should have been segregated better. Bikers almost ran into runners several times. I would participate again.

  • Comments: Great job for an innaugural race. It was a lot of fun to get out there through the Oswego countryside. A lot of fast parts (potentially, if you are trained even in the least). There appeared to be quite a high percentage of locals and young people in the race so that was really cool to see so much local support and involvement even to the point of participation. A couple of intersections were not mashalled but hey, there's only so much police and volunteer staff to go around. I have nothing bad to day about this race and it sparked my interest in Sprint distance racing. Way to go Oswego! Watch video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=5PfXbNhEBy4
