  • Comments: This is definitely a no frills race - if you're looking for a good t-shirt, big medal, freebies, etc. - look elsewhere. However, the aid stations were great, the volunteers were super, and its a beautiful course in the Adirondack Mountains.

  • Comments: This is a low-frills race. Don't come here looking for the brand name vibe and for every little detail to be nailed. They do get the big ones right. The course is nice, it's well marked, the community supports the race and there are plenty of aid stations with enthusiastic volunteers.

  • Comments: The first thing I wanted from this race was to enjoy it. I wanted to finish with a smile and not slogging. I was not slogging for sure. Although I did hurt on the bike the pain left for the run and I enjoyed it. The swim was as usual. Good. Out 3 places faster 51/608. Bike slower and run the same. T1 was a speedy one for me, T2 slow but a girl has to change ya know. I like this venue. The volunteers are great! Most the crowd is great. I did get one dirty look for a guy who passed me at mile thirty on the bike with a face like how the hell did you get out this far. Fins buddy fins. Love the camp grounds Kam. Thanks for dinner and coffee. Ready to sign up for next year? They have asked for a lot feed back to update the race. Hey they go the finishing metals right.

  • Comments: Real good race. I think what made it even better was my fan club that came up to cheer me on. Overall I am happy with my preformance, I would have liked to be 10-11m faster but what can you do but learn from mistakes, move on and hope to not make them again.
