  • Events on time?Yes

  • Lots of volunteers to help?Yes
  • Plenty of drink stations?Yes

  • Post race activities? Bad
  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: This was the worst post race experience ever. No results for days and then an estimation of our results. No hot food or adult beverages. The swag was sad. On the upside, the course is very challenging with the hills and transition sitting in the low pit area. I will not be back, there are better races out there.

  • Comments: This was only my third triathlon after two local sprints so I was a little wide-eyed as I viewed this as my first "big race." I would have to say that it lived up to expectations. The turnout was huge compared to my other races. All the gear and swag had a feel of being a much higher level race. The event was well organized and laid out well given the constraints of the Rockwall Harbor area. More experienced triathletes might not have been as impressed as I was, but this race made me feel like I was participating in a big event for the first time. Pretty cool. Will do it every year, but will likely step up to the OLY distance. Sprint course was great though.
