  • Comments: I was pleased with the performance. It was a little redemption for the really crappy race I had 2 weeks ago. Things are heading in the right direction. I'm a little disappointed that I wasn't competitive enough to bring home a third piggy bank award, but at least Melissa got one by placing second in her age group

  • Comments: This is really a well run and first class event. I just wish they would/could do something about the traffic situation, it's pretty dangerous and I could see someone being seriously injured in the wrong situation...

  • Comments: This race would be so much better if they could find a way to close the course to traffic. Talk about accidents waiting to happen. Other than that its a top notch race, well run, with plenty of beginners and talent alike. Best hardware ever too!

  • Comments: This was my first time doing the Piggy sprint and it was a pretty decent race. They could really stand to try and get the road closed though. Other than that food was great, volunteers were great, and I came home with a little piggy hardware. Another good tuneup race before the half next weekend

  • Comments: Today was a monumental day, the Pigman Sprint 2006 was my first triathlon ever. Two years ago I finished it in 1hr 48 minutes, bottom 10 of the clydesdales. Now two years later 1hr 28min, top ten of the clydesdales. Today I also beat my fastest sprint triathlon time to date by 12 minutes. Next weekend half-ironman, bring it on!!!

  • Comments: I am not that competitive by nature, but my wife and I are a little competitive this year against each other. I thought I might be able to beat her on the sprint because I would be able to put some time into her on the bike and hold her off on the run. She has placed 1st in her age division at her 2 previous sprint triathlons, so this was going to be no easy task. Well as a ex-collegiate runner she ended up beating my by 2 minutes and taking 2nd in her age group against the toughest competition she has had yet. However I think my wife is a bike shark (kind of like a billiards shark, she pretends she is not that good but come race time kick s some but.) When I go on training rides with her, she will make it seem like she is doing the best she can, but when she rides alone or in races she always kicks the pace way up. I am really proud of her, however since I promised her a race bike and wheels like mine I am worried that the free speed she is going to gain is going to take away any

  • Comments: I had a great time. The whole triathlon experience was awesome. People were so encouraging and inspiring. I will definitely keep training for triathlons and do them at least twice if not more per year. This was a great starting point and a good course to keep me challenged enough but also happy with my performance. I was happy to finish and even happier that I finished under 2 hours (even if it was by only 9 seconds...)

  • Comments: Great event, well organized, fun course. My first Triathlon and I loved every second of it. Only negatives: Need beer with the pizza and need to close the course inside the park to cars. Cars make it too dangerous and causes slower times.

  • Comments: I loved this race. Wished I could of convinced my fiance to do it. From the times posted she would have probably won her age group by about 6 minutes or more (She is a way better athlete than me). Ohh well fodder for next year. The prize drawing at the end was awsome. They gave away a brand new QR Kilo, Zip 808 tubulars, 10 spinervals (bundled together), a QR wetsuit, and transition pack loaded with about $800 worth of gear. The more amazing part is that it took them about 25 trys to finnaly get winners for the drawing as it was based on your race number and some people who would have won had already went home. Sucks to be them knowing they would have won a $2000 bike. Can't wait to try the 1/2 iron at the same spot.

  • Comments: As always, the traffic on the course is a little terrifying at Pigman. It would really improve things if they could shut down traffic in the park, but it doesn't sound as if it's likely to happen. Otherwise a great event.
