• Comments: This is a great race, especially for beginners. I said that I wouldn't do this race next year but now that I did well, I may change my mind. The bike course is so congested with people not knowing what they were doing and I wondered if they even had ridden their bike before the event. But I will always support anyone that wants to get healthy and try a race! The run course was better this year with many portos on the run. Last year there was a porto potty at the transition exit and THAT WAS IT!! So it was nice to see more of them out there!

• Comments: Pros: Awesome, positive volunteers Really well marked bike and run course Good number of aid stations on the run course with ice, water, gels, blox Race swag! I got two really nice Moxie jerseys (tri and cycling) as well as a plain Gildan athletic tee Cons (mostly related to the race being marketed to sprinters and supersprinters): There were relatively fewer athletes doing the olympic distance and so fewer spectators around to cheer on the longer distance athletes The highly advertised "beauty bar" closed up right when I rolled into transition (they offered me a $10 coupon for a beauty service but this didn't really seem like a win). It seemed to be a service aimed at racers doing the shorter distance tris or only for faster athletes...
