  • Comments: Other than the congested and zig zag swim course, i really enjoyed this race - it was so well organized and supportive and the bike and run course was amazing. The logistics, parking and layout was beautiful. I would highly recommend it for any women's first tri.

  • Comments: This is a great first-timer tri. Being an all female triathlon, EVERYONE is very supportive. Even if their passing you at the time. ;)

  • Comments: The course for each event was very nice and it was extremely well run. Courses were well marked and lots of voluteers everywhere. This was a great experience and one I will never forget. I can't wait to do the next one - but not before some better training and preparation for the swim event. I have never had an athletic bone in my body so this felt like a huge accomplishment for me. Of course now I think I can tackle anything that comes my way :-)

  • Comments: New sponsor, same great race. This continues to be one of my favorite races. Women of all shapes, sizes, ages getting along and helping each other. What more could you want? Once you get co-ed, things get a little more competitive and you lose something that this race captures so well. I really prefer when it is scheduled in July, as it doesn't require us to run/bike in March to get adequately prepared (Chicago weather doesn't always cooperate). The weather was obviously not their fault, but waiting for that wave to start was brutal!

  • Comments: too many people for my taste. It's a great first race but waiting an hour to get in the water is nuts.

  • Comments: I really enjoy this race ... nice, unintimidating swim and FLAT bike and run courses. And because it's all women it's a "you go, girl!" kind of environment, which is a nice change of pace.
