  • Comments: This race just gets better every year. Emde Sports and Fitness Fanatics and the other sponsors do a wonderful job putting on a top-notch event. This is the only all-women race in our area, and every year new people come out to try who thought they could never do anything like this. I got my start in tri by volunteering at the first ever Valley Girl and watching people who looked just like me finish the race with smiles on their faces. I hope that I can be an inspiriation to someone out there who maybe isn't a steely-eyed, whippet-thin athlete. And speaking of volunteers, there were a ton of 'em, and Emde Sports even donated $$ for each volunteer from our school to a local school program. Q'doba came and did the post-race food (yum) and the finish was in the city park with lots of things for the kiddies to do. The givaways at the end were great (even if I didn't win anything), and the competitors and volunteers were all very encouraging. All-in-all, this was a great race.

  • Comments: Loved this experience. Even the horrible swim after all is said and done. Great inspiration to keep in shape and do it again.
