• Comments: Great venue at the Aquatic Center--beautiful pool and location. Great bike course and super safe with police at all the dangerous intersections and a full car lane blocked off with cones every 5 feet for the entire course--awesome on the part of the RD and the cops. Run was 2 loops--good for seeing people on the course and spectators. Well run overall especially for the inaugural event. Very good in all the important things. Nice to have massages available. But the post race food was sliced bread and butter and water--that's it! I couldn't choke down the bread which was so dry. No fruit or granola bars which are easy and pretty inexpensive and quick and decent nutrition. And there was nothing else going on at the finish--no announcing names as people finished, no music. But nice age group awards--a pint glass with the event logo. I'd do it again.
