  • Comments: (1) Need WAY more port-a-potties. 10 were outside of transition - only 3 inside but they were on the far side so there was no way I was going to waste all that time running to use them. None on the course. Line ups pre-race were insane. (2) Put swim buoys closer together so you can see them. (3) Mark the potholes on the bike course. They'd sneak up on you and they were big and deep... and in some sections there were lots.

  • Comments: As the inaugural race in downtown Toronto things went pretty well I would say..other than a couple things: 1. The mandatory pre-race briefing needs to go. This was a huge expense for me to drive and park in Toronto just for information I could have read in an email. 2. The signage and marking before and during the race could be improved big time. If they scrap the pre-race briefing I will certainly be back next year.

  • Comments: I didn't give it the highest score because of the distance marking and confusion on the run course.
