  • Comments: First podium for me with a 3rd in my age group! Kinda lame medal, but I felt good knowing I worked hard this summer and it paid off. Chatted some more with Emily and got to watch her take home hardware as usual :-) We had great weather for this late in the year and the setting is very nice out there. Will likely do this race again.

  • Comments: It was fun. The results are still incorrect after a week. It started late but there were 3!!! water stops on the run, which is amazing. The finish line food is very limited - Chex Mix and Gardettos, water. They often have Gear West making hot dogs but I guessed I missed it. And frankly I'm not into supporting the hot dog industry. It's always a mixed bag with Front Runner.

  • Comments: Square Lake is an ideal place for a triathlon swim and the stairs to T2 offer a unique experience. The bike course is in rough shape in a stretch and made the race less enjoyable. The race events were late. The biggest let down of the day is crossing the finish line and seeing water and chex mix. Thanks to Gear West we got a hot dog.
