  • Comments: You're never going to get a fancy race with a lot of amenities with Tri Family Racing, but what you do get is a great family orientated race, a lot of familiar/friendly faces and a good variety of skill sets to race with/against.

  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: Overall, this was my fastest race so far (set new PR!) and beat my previous time by over 4 minutes. The consistent training and hardwork is finally paying off and being rewarded with faster times is truly gratifying. I can tell a huge difference with losing about 8-10 lbs since my last race in December. The past 3 weeks I started doing hot yoga and stopped lifting weights temporarily in preparation for my first Oly on March 18th in San Diego (SuperSeal Tri). I feel that it is definitely helping me slim down and become more flexible, making the whole s/b/r easier for me to get faster. I am officially an MOP'er! Bring on SuperSeal!

  • Comments: Course was a nice change in pace. Almost completely flat. The transition area was a bit "blech" (layout). While I was racing, there were mini-sprint people walking through the transition area with their bikes to leave. And then when I finished, nobody told us the youth race was going on! I almost ran into one of the little guys. After the race, the pool was really nice to gather around with friends to just talk.
