  • Comments: This is only the 2nd year for this race, and the RD made some pretty major changes/improvements from last year, from what I understand. It sounds like next year there may be a few more. Aside from a few growing pains, I really, truly did enjoy this race. I like what they are trying to do: present a fun, scenic race with unique aspects (expressway, boardwalk) that intertwines with the community and letting people see/experience what makes AC AC. I would do this race again, for sure. And there is little doubt that the RD will do his best to make improvements based on the feedback of the racers this year.

  • Comments: This was an excellent race. You swam in the bay at 73.5°F temperatures so you didn't need a wetsuit, but you could wear one. Start was based on age group waves so you didn't have too much jostling. The bike was excellent since you got to ride on the Atlantic City Expressway. There was wind in one direction so you were slow going west, but fast going east. The run was on the famous Atlantic City boardwalk. It was a great run and a good surface on the boardwalk. Excellent drink stations using Hammer (drink and gels)and Gatorade.

  • Comments: this was one of the best triathlons i have been to - and i loved the finishers medal!! It felt so amazing to cross the finishers line. the food was great post race (although as a chef - i would have done it differently - just the food that is) the ride course, although fun to do was stressful and there were a lot of traffic jams. the swim and run courses were excellent and safe. i WILL do this again!!!
