  • Comments: The race was ok. My wife had spinal surgery the next day. That combined with how I felt after the race and that is why it has taken me two weeks to get a sub par report up. I honestly want to forget this one. I felt that the month off just before the race hurt me and told my brother pre race that I'd be ok with 1:48 as it would beat my last years time. My goal was much faster but I guess with all the badness that went down I'll be happy with at 6 minute increase.

  • Comments: Really need more people on boats in the water. there were only a handful. Recipe for a disaster. Esp., given the wind and chop.

  • Comments: I always love this race... two years ago at lake mills was the first triathlon i ever did... 87th that year... 45th last year... and 15th this year.. so have to be pleased with that... so my 5 goals... 1) Sub 1:10 - Not too far off at 1:10:41... 2) Top 30 OA - Very suprised by a 15th pace finish... 3) Top 3 AG - Thought I had it but finished 4th... 4) Top 5 run split - Snuck in at number 5... 5) PR all legs - PR'd the bike and run... probably swam as well as last year but the conditions made it tough to PR... aside from the nagging question in my mind about the distance of the run course... it was a great day and a fun race..

  • Comments: Always a great race to start the season. As always great to see and hang with my fellow Donks. Little smaller contingent than years past, but very enthusiatic! Pleased with race considering I did no taper at all. This was about 30 seconds off my PR for this race, however that was when the bike course was a mile shorter. So I think I could get credit for a PR. What do you think can I get credit for that? Maybe I will do one of these: PR*

  • Comments: the swim course left a little to be desired, had to watch others to figure out just where to go! Overall, a nice race, just wished there would have been more aid stations in general!

  • Comments: Had to bolt right after the race to get back and coach my son's T-ball game. Sorry I couldn't stick around and hang with the Donks! As always, this was a fun, well-run race. With the conditions beings absolutely perfect to set a PR, I was disappointed my ankle prevented me from bringing my A-game, but it was fun nonetheless. One weird thing I noticed was even though my time was a little bit slower this year, my rank within my AG was considerably higher. So special thanks to my fellow codgers for going easy on me.

  • Comments: This was a PR for me in a lot of ways. The swim was much better than last year at this race. I actually swam the whole time, fast no, but really good for me.My bike is my best sport by far and I have improved that a lot in the past few months. I know with more training I can really crush it. I did fairly well on the run especially after the effort I was able to put out on the bike portion. My transitions have really improved with a lot of practice and from reading all of the helpful posts on this website (Oh, and ST too) Thanks everyone for the helpful info that you post on here for all of us newbies.
