• Comments: I really liked this race & would do it again. It's flat & fast, and the Inner Harbor is clean & generally quite calm. I like the urban locale, with the old grain elevators as a backdrop. The Race Director & his crew (which seemed to include a lot of family) were very friendly & personable. My own race was a huge personal best in all disciplines, including transitions. The fact that they were so even in relation to other women (14th in swim, 13th in bike, 12th in run), tells me that my swimming is improving greatly over last year, and that my pacing was good.

• Comments: I stayed to see the awards but left shortly after, didn't stay for food or anything so can't comment on post race activities too much, other than they did start awards fairly quick after the race.
