  • Comments: Too bad about the swim, however safety is the number one goal. Well organised and good routes. Athlete briefing well worth it to get idea of where the challenges are and where the road conditions are less than ideal.

  • Comments: Overall, I enjoy doing this race. This is my third time racing here, and unfortunately, the swim has been cancelled twice. That is NOT the RD's fault- they had to make this call. But, it is something to consider when shelling out the money for this race. The bike is pretty easy, even on a windy day, and the run course is fair, but on the boring side. I do kind of like how the run is crowded though, because it's fun to see a ton of other competitors, and have lots of people around- you are never lonely on this course! The volunteers were amazing, the race is very well organized, and there is always great competition that shows up. I had a great time this weekend!

  • Comments: Overall a hollow feeling. Through nobody's fault at the end of the day we didn't do an Ironman. But, I'm proud to be a member of the 69.1 club! We are going to get a sticker for the van! Have dedicated portapotties/food for athletes in transition so we don't have to compete with the spectators. Ironman Racine had this type of setup and it worked well. The bike course was nice, the run course was blah. Felt like we were running thru a parking lot. Volunteers were great!!!! Spectators were few but also very supportive.
