  • Comments: I don't expect to place as high as I usually do in sprints as my distances increase, but I am pleased to report that I was in the top 30% of my AG which was a surprise. PP is a very competitive race (and 3 of the top 5 women were in my AG!!!) and Chicagoland is a very competitive area, so I feel really good about the day overall, despite minor mishaps and my personal buffoonery! Race gets a 4 instead of a 5 because the after party sucked. Also, if you must go on and on about your goody bag, please have a decent goody bag. I don't really care, I would be happy with nothing, but in fairness, the shirt is awful and with the exception of the medal, there was nothing else given away.

  • Comments: Overall was a great race. Felt it was well organized and routes were well marked. The race website touts a "great goodie bag". Not sure only an ugly rust orange shirt justifies this statement. Must be a surplus of this color overseas!

  • Comments: This was a good race and I felt good and had a good time. Weather was just about perfect. My only complaint, and it's a minor one that others probably wouldn't complain about, would be with the infrequent water stations on the run.

  • Comments: It's evident that Pleasant Prairie hosts a lot of triathlons because things were clearly organized and well run. In addition, with having sprint & International courses overlapping, the routes were clearly marked making turns and intersections easy to navigate even while speeding through quickly on a bike. I will definitely do this race again.

  • Comments: Fourth time at doing this race and got a PB. I think I could have pushed a little more on both the bike and run. Good day all-n-all.
