  • Comments: Good overall race. Everything went very smoothly. My only issue, and it really wasn't my issue, was for the guy I beat to the line. When the first results got posted, I was listed as 2nd in our age group and he was 3rd. Age group results got posted and it stayed the same. So that guy waited for an extra hour and a half for the awards ceremony. When our age group got called, I ended up third and he missed out in fourth. I watched him go up and ask what happened and he was told they had someone listed in the wrong age group and that guy actually won our age group, knocking everyone down one spot. I hope the race director took care of that guy who waited around for the ceremony based on the posted award. I know if that had been me, My wife and kids would have been peeved! Anyway, It was a great race and I had a good time. I'll do more races in the series in the future.

  • Comments: Tri the parks races are always well organized. I was really hoping Dr. Sadri's crew was there cause I could have really used a massage. Last I talked to him though it sounded like he was traveling most of June and July - ah, well. JT got changed quickly and we loaded up and raced to south Georgia for a family wedding - nothing like a 4 hour drive immediately after a race to get the legs feeling just right!
