  • Comments: I have nothing to compare this race too as it was my first. However, to me, it seemed well organized. I think the course was perfect for my first race, flat! It also helped me to understand transition better by actually doing it along with understanding how to better pace myself. It was a learning tool and I learned I need to focus more on my run in particular and hard efforts on bike.

  • Comments: Great Race - Very organized. Joe P is a fun RD! I would recommend this as a warm up, first race, etc. Anyone with more experience might not find it challenging.

  • Comments: First time I had done this race and I was really impressed by the organization. I would thoroughly recommend this to people who have never competed in a tri before. The RD was really good about explaining things to the beginners. The swim is very close to shore the entire race and there were plenty of kayakers / lifeguards, etc which is great for nervous swimmers. The bike leg, has very clearly explained lanes which stop beginners / slow riders getting in dangerous positions with fast cyclists. Overall fun race.
