  • Comments: The volunteers at all the events I've done are awesome. This event was very difficult both physically and mentally. It was very welcoming to see the smiling faces of the people who give up their personal time, just so that people like me can chase their dreams. In the past year and a half I have gone from couch potato to duathlete to triathlete. I've dropped 70lbs, I have a huge store of energy, I can chase my 6 year old son around all day and not break a sweat...my wife likes what she sees ;) and I've made some great new friends. I was warned a little while back that this tri thing is addictive...all I can say is: "where can I score my next fix?"

  • Comments: As said above. I don't think it was just the weather. The Race Director just did not have stuff (like food on course, toilets) organized. He is new. That combined with the crappy road surface makes me think I'm not going to do this race again...although I really like the hotel proximity and all the good friends that were there.
