  • Comments: Overall a good race. The weather affected the turnout, and it seemed as if there was not a lot of energy surrounding the race. I will do it again, hopefully with better weather.

  • Comments: Having a shorter distance OWS tri was the big appeal for me, plus it was close to home. I hope JJ's Foundation has this next year as I'd like to do it again and see how a more experienced version of me stacks up!

  • Comments: The numbers seem to be falling at this race which is too bad. It's a nice venue but they were short on volunteers. Despite that, the race was smooth and enjoyable. I'd do it again.

  • Comments: I should have filled this out a year ago! Thankfully I did take some notes in a personal log and was able to find my times online. This was the 2nd year in a row doing this race and I think I'll do it again at some point to break 1:30. The only drawbacks for me are the long run to transition for T1 and the two loops on the run. Other than that, it's well organized and beautiful countryside on the bike.

  • Comments: I still love this race and hope to do it every year. There was plenty of water on the run course (last year they ran out) so that helped a lot. All of the other athletes are so supportive that it makes DFL a little easier to swallow.

  • Comments: Enjoyed the smaller race, but our swim wave was huge. Probably half of the 300 racers were in my wave, out of the 4 total.

  • Comments: This is my first ever triathlon, I wanted to finish in 2 hr 30 min and completely crushed that goal! Even though I came in 5th from last, I came in! Thanks to my husband and all fellow BT'ers for being at the finish line to cheer me across. I had a great time.....

  • Comments: It's fun to be able to do a race like this and then be able to do other things for the rest of the day, but I still think I'm better suited for longer races. My AG place was worse than WLH, but I think my overall place was better. Or maybe it's just that I would rather race long course. Anyway, I had a sh#tload of fun and that's why I came out today. And that's why I do this, ultimately.

  • Comments: Good race overall for being my first Triathlon. Needed water stations on the bike course. Run course needed not to be loops and better marked. I am glad I did it. I am also glad that somone invented ibuprofen and ice packs.

  • Overall course based on my ability: Too hard

  • Comments: My name is Vicki, I was the last person to cross the finish line and I am a triathlete. (My rank was 248/252 because 4 people didn't finish.) When I finished, most of the other triathletes were gone. There were literally maybe 5 triathletes still there. The masseuse was gone. The food was all gone. They were breaking down the transition area with my bike still in it. I overcame my fears of the water and finished the swim. I was lonely on the bike but kept going telling myself, It's just another ride, you've done this distance before you can do it again. It was as much of a mental race as a physical one. This, my first triathlon, was the most difficult thing I have ever done in my life. But I didn't give up. I'm not a quitter. I AM A TRIATHLETE.

  • Comments: This was the first time for this race so it was a good race but there are some things that they could work on but the bottom line is that I am the one who must continue to work hard and get better. I control my on destiny on how far I can go.
