  • Comments: Expensive race, but very close to the house. A lot of the bike and run were on a busy road and bike out, run out and run in were all on the shoulder of the road.

  • Comments: This is by far one of my favorite races. The organizers are just great to work with. Lots of fun out there with both the volunteers and racers. The only bad thing is they ran out of pizza. The last 10 or so finishers didn't have an option. Still the organizers were surprised how quickly the pizza disappeared. It is hard to manage food and they had plenty of everything else.

  • Comments: Great race for a good cause. I've gotten to know a lot of BTers this year so it was nice to hang out and talk about the race with Rick and CJ. Nice to see Rick, who finished 2nd, sooooo excited about his wife doing the race. And, CJ come in 3rd in his AG. This is my 3rd year doing this race and I really enjoy it.

  • Comments: Very well run race. Only complaint of mine would be the two person per lane swim. It meant that the people later in the numbers had to wait over 2 HOURS to get into the pool. Mir was literally the last one to get in the water and since she did not have any opportunities to train for swimming she was the last one out of the water, the last one on the bike course and then the last one out on the run. But she finished!! And she did really well on the bike for the limited times that she has ridden and never walked the hills or had any mechanicals. She's a natural on the bike!! ;) I was worried and pacing around and always looking at everyone coming in and even went down to the end of the driveway looking for her to come in on the bike. Some of those downhills were sketchy and I was really concerned for her safety. It was a huge relief when she came over the last one and onto the driveway to the swim club. It was a mediocre race for me but I was so proud of her and her sticking

  • Comments: Great race and a wonderful time to come out and see some sandbaggers (Joe and Rick) and some first timers (Mir) all in the same place. The race has improved since I did it for the first time 3 years ago. Planning on becoming an "official" course and now have split times. Also it goes to a good cause which is always a plus.

  • Comments: My main goal was to finish, which I obviously did! My secondary goal was to complete in under 2 hours, which I also accomplished. It really was a great day! I plan to do more races this summer.

  • Comments: Tri-To-Win events get better every year. This year had improved timing from ChampionChip timing, a modified run course that was an 'official' 5k distance, lots of volunteers, and a positive vibe.

  • Comments: I thought I had an outside chance of re-claiming third place in my age group this year if I had a good race, and after a great race in May (Columbia Triathlon) I was feeling pretty optimistic. My previous best on this course was 1:16:30 which was good enough for a 3rd place finish. I knew I beat that by nearly 2 minutes, but I had no idea who else in my age group had finished faster. So, I went home and told a friend who was volunteering to pick up my medal if I made it into the top 3. Later that day I got a call saying I won my age group. It took 16 triathlons for me to get my first age group win.

  • Comments: Well run. Friendly workers. Nice course. Saw a couple of people had the same problem I had wit the swim where the counter on 1 side said they were on the last lap and the person at the other said 1 more. I guess it gets pretty boring counting laps like that endlessly. Wonderful race full of friendly people. Talked before the race with several people nearby in the bike corrals. Very hilly, made it interesting. Great 1st race. Plan to do it again.

  • Comments: Good race, lots of kid volunteers, helping out everyway they can. Seemed like a good local race I will do from now on. Only problem was the time you had to wait to bike for the race.
