  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: This is my first race since moving here, and I'm really disappointed. The volunteers are terse, the amenities are minimal for the money, and the information is inaccurate/changing/unavailable. For a race that required no police presence or closed streets with 650+ participants, I'm not sure what happened to my money. My Tshirt is probably the poorest quality race shirt I've recieved in years, that log jam for water post race, the bag that wasn't big enough to hold gear...It wasn't bad, just sort of startling, especially the part where I was snipped at by two different volunteers for doing nothing more than asking a question (chip table and gear bag return). Was this a particularly stressful event for 3D? The gentlemen doing the announcing was less than pleasant. At the same time, athletes weren't listening. Many people trying to get their gear out of T2 before they were supposed to. HOwever, 3D could solve that by actually posting volunteers at the entrances. No one ever checked my number
