  • Organised?Yes
  • Events on time?Yes

  • Lots of volunteers to help?Yes
  • Plenty of drink stations?No

  • Post race activities? Average
  • Overall course based on my ability: Too hard

  • Comments: The course itself is definitely one of the fastest courses in the MidWest. If you want a HIM PR, this is where to do it. RMP does a good job with their races, and for a first-time event with a very late bike course rearrangement everything seemed to go pretty smoothly. I hope the participation grows like it should and this will soon be a great race. Oh yeah - TEAM WEST, BABY!

  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: For an inaugural race, I thought they did a great job. Some minor tweaks to make it better next year, but I would definitely recommend this race! Don't let the "flat" course description fool you, this actually turned out to be a very tough race!

  • Comments: This was a GREAT event. It was a 1st time event, and they pulled it off well. Great SWAG, great spirit. It was organized and even with some changes, they communicated well. The post race had a good atmosphere and BBQ for participants It was not a WTC event, but it felt every bit as professional and felt like the athletes were treated quite well. I would not hesitate to do this one again, however a midwest race in October is a bit of a crapshoot as far as weather.
