  • Comments: Now I feel like I really understand what a triathlon is. This was very different from a sprint. I felt so good knowing that I had worked so hard all summer and was able to complete this goal and felt good while doing it! I am so excited to do this race and this distance again.

  • Comments: The Mighty Hamptons was a decent race despite the rainy, wet and cold conditions. I certainly did not have an ideal race, many other things I didn't mention went wrong, but I made the best of it and maintained a positive attitude. The race was well mapped, organized, and staffed. The bike was scenic and run was flat and fast. It was also kind of cool having T.J. Tollakson there. For me personally, I'm grateful to even be able to participate in this race after separating my shoulder exactly three weeks ago. I'm already eager to sign up for this race next year and race it in ideal, sunny conditions. My personal goal is a sub 2:30 and I am determined to continue training for and racing this course until I accomplish it, no matter how many years it takes.

  • Comments: This was a great race. I wish the sun was out to be able to enjoy the scenery that the course offered. The rain made the event much more memorable for me. This was my first OLY distance and I was hoping to finish in under 3 hours. The firat thing I thought as I crossed the finish line was "This was the most difficult thing that I have ever done." It was a great endding to my 2nd year of doing tri's, I enjoy the OLY distance much more than I thought I would. I will be back next year. I am glad that I didn't sign up for the Montauk HIM, I have got alot of work to do this winter.
