  • Comments: ONE WORD: INCREDIBLE. I had the absolute best time in this race the whole time, it was so unbelievable. This is my only race, so it's hard to rate. There were tons of volunteers and there was tons of water, etc. The bike course was not closed but traffic cops did a great job helping out the riders. A++ I have two more races planned this year. Check out my pictures of the race on Flickr. I'm in all the ones tagged "rick".

  • Comments: My primary goal for this race was to have a strong performance in front of my parents and sisters. I certainly met that goal and everyone was pretty astonished with how well I finished (including me). I finished 13th out of a field of 38 and couldn't be happier. There is still a good amount of room for improvement, but I'm happy with my performance for now.

  • Comments: One of the only complaints that I had about the whole race is that since I was in the very last swim wave, a lot of people were done with the race when I was just finishing the bike. As I was coming in from the bike on the park road (about 3/4 mile long), a lot of the people that had already finished were already walking out to go home. They were spread out all the way across the road walking down it where people (ME) were still trying to race!! They made no effort to get out of the way, just continued to walk all across the road. I just thought this was super disrespectful and rude. I know I am not the fastest person there, but my time is still important to me, and several times I had to come almost to a complete stop to avoid hitting these racers walking to their cars. The other thing I am wondering about is the distances. I had PBs on every portion of this tri (including training and race times). This, in addition to the fact that at the end of the bike my bike computer only said
