  • Comments: Overall a good race. Lots of changes though. 6.5mi run became a 6.9mi run. 3 age groups combined into one(10-24) which left me off the podium even though website and prerace email said 20-24 was its own AG. Despite the changes it was another great Ultramax event.

  • Comments: finished late so all food and other things were gone. transition area's were extremely crowded and sprint and olympic distances were mixed together which caused a lot of confusion with gear and setup. racks kept falling and storm blew bikes off of rack.

  • Comments: A very nice race with lots of volunteers and I think the entire town of Topeka was out to see what was going on. Standard Ultramax first year event glitches though, nothing major and everything was ironed out before the start of the race. I don't think the swim to T1 chute was finalized until 30 minutes before the gun went off. Sometimes the best layout isn't apparent until you physically set it up. It looked like the number of athletes overwhelmed the physical transition space.
