  • Comments: The course is challenging, but the race is very well organized. The swim was great and the bike is a bit hilly, but not overly technical. The run is very hilly and can be brutal (as I found out). Great people and a great race. I'd definitely do it again.

  • Comments: Great venue. Beautiful and super clean lake, which makes swimming into the sun a non-issue for me. I'll take sun glare over nasty water any day! There is one rough section of road on the bike course, but otherwise a well-shaded and beautiful course. Run is beautiful as well, but very hilly. I wish the bike was a typical oly distance as the extra 5 miles eliminates my swim advantage.

  • Comments: I am extremely happy with my performance. This was my second tri, with the first being a neighborhood sprint that I did on a whim with no training.

  • Comments: Good race, but a very hard course. I like the venue b/c the lake is a good place for the family to hang out afterwards. As for the race itself, I labeled it just right b/c I have the opportunity to train on it regularly. If I hadn't trained on, however, I'd state it is "too hard", especially for your beginner triathlete.

  • Comments: Race was delayed 10 minutes to let some of the fog burn off the lake...a good decision. This is the second time I've run this race: it's well run, in a beautiful location, and is solid/challenging late season race

  • Comments: This was one of my best races so far. I can't think of anything I could have done to change the results. Last race of the season so it is time to take a few weeks off before diving into training for next year.

  • Comments: Thanks to organizers and volunteers! Smooth race. Only regret was there was a military contingent with matching uniforms that was taking a picture together near the awards. We should have stopped the awards and given them a little appreciation. Thanks for defending the country guys, we appreciate your work and sacrifice.

  • Comments: I came into the race with a blue sky goal of 2:45 and a realistic goal of sub 3:00. by the 800 meter mark of the swim I knew that 2:45 was out. By the 15 mile mark of the ride I knew 3:00 was out. I could never get out of 1st gear. effort was there (legs are telling me that). Not sure what happened with the swim. that is probably the most disappointing part of the race as much work as I have done with swimming and especially trying to get the kick more efficient. Will chalk this one up as bad and not sure why. This is one of those races that makes me want to throw the bike away, and run long only. Swimming would be the cross training.

  • Comments: I will return next year and do much better. I snuffed my training the last two weeks and should not have. While I thought the swim would be 1:30 it was only :46 which was pretty good all things considered! The bike was a disappointment even though I was riding, I thought, well. Finally the run, well what can I say. The run is really what pulled me 6 minutes over, although my I accomplished my goal of completing my first Olympic Triathlon. I need to be honest and train much more. I really slacked off during my entire training period. Not bad for a Retired 90% Disabled Vet who underwent nine major surgeries last year, including disc replacement, shoulder reconstruction, and major face reconstruction! The $6 Man survived, to do it all over again!

  • Comments: It was an incredibly beautiful day for a race. A little cool at the start but you warm up quick. Seeing the sunrise over the lake was picturesque. I met some cool people walking from the parking lot and just had a great experience.
