  • Comments: This still remains one of my perennial favorites in the SE. It's tough and the venue makes you know that. I enjoy seeing a lot of friends here and GA Multisports has upp'ed the game with a better race day vibe. Also, my tri club, Atlanta Tri Club (www.atlantatriclub.com), had 30 members race today!!! And man are they fast and getting faster. We need more slow members so I can feel a sense of accomplishment. :) I'm very proud of them and what they've done this season. So many good stories to tell there. All-in-all, I was happy for the wake-up call personally and glad that I decided to attend this year's race. It was the best weather I've ever seen here and the field is definitely getting tougher.

  • Comments: This is a great race! Fast group, and everyone seem to know what they were doing. Very solid overall, and a great race to test yourself (course wise and against other racers). The volunteers were wonderful, and very helpful. Plenty of aid stations, and support throughout the day. It is definitely a race everyone in GA should put on their schedule.

  • Comments: Excellent race. Great shout out to Henry Forrest at the beginning by the race director. Tugaloo was his last race attended last year. I will be back, but not next year.. I'll be in Madison.

  • Comments: This was a well organized and fun (afterward at least) race. It was a tough course, but everyone faced the same hills. Would definitely do it again, but may or may not depending on if I get into IM Moo 2010!

  • Comments: I just said to hard based on my ability just because I hadn't done any training really. But look forward to doing this race again next year and see how I improve.
