  • Comments: Many people say that this is the ideal first triathlon for someone starting out, and I agree. I found out a lot of weaknesses in my training and overall preparedness, and I've only gotten better because of it. Everyone was friendly and very encouraging. Some friends and I hung out near the last turn of the race to cheer on remaining finishers and it's awesome to see the look of accomplishment on people's faces. I can't wait to hit this race next year and kill my old time. I'm sure without some of the setbacks I faced I could have easily cut 15 minutes from my time. Look out 2011!

  • Comments: This race is soooo well run and was so much fun to be a part of. Volunteers were literally everywhere helping out making sure you knew EXACTLY where to go. I had a great time and will definitely be back next year to hopefully move up two spots on the podium!

  • Comments: This is a really unique race in that the three segments are designed to yield roughly equivalent times for most athletes. For someone like me who usually lags on the bike, that's pretty appealing.
