  • Comments: Well run race, VERY appropriately named this year. But the best indicator for me is whether I'll return again (no matter the weather) and in this case absolutely I'll be back next year.

  • Comments: There were a ton of volunteers at virtually every key point of the race, and everybody was very friendly and gave words of encouragement. What's even more impressive is the race director looked like he was in his 20s, although I can't say for certain if he was or wasn't.

  • Comments: Adding the second pool is a great idea but those of us assigned to it had no idea what to do about the long run and had no idea how long it was or what the surface would be like. That should change.

  • Comments: This is a slick operation. Many fabulous volunteers made what could have been a miserable experience (given the weather) a great race. The swimming heats that I watched all started exactly on time and there were no hitches anywhere.

  • Comments: The volunteers did a FANTASTIC job of running the race. There was no doubt about which way the bike and run courses went, & no way you get wander of course. The National Guard folks and Law Enforcement did a great job working traffic on the bike course. The race was well organized, well run, and they had plenty of help. I was really impressed! Good job you guys! See you next year for sure!!! :-)

  • Comments: Um, move the event to a warmer month? Or maybe I shouldn't sign up for an event with the word "freezer" in the title. Seriously, it was a well run event. Very organized, especially since it doubled in size this year. The staff and volunteers were all so friendly and helpful, and everyone on the course seemed like they were having a great time, in spite of the cooooollldddd. I have two complaints about what I think was overall I pretty fun event. First, I didn't see anyone on the bike course looking for rule violations, and I definitely noticed some serious drafting. Most of it did not appear to be intentional, but it was still a problem. Second of all, it took forever for them to post the race results. Seriously in a race of 500 people with chip timing, why does it take more than 8 hours to post results on line?
