  • Comments: Ok, I rated it best but I have no background or anything to compare it to. Well, this is why: 1. The fellow atheletes were a great bunch, 2. The volunteers were helpful and spent time with the newbies, 3. Its for a good cause, and 4. I am a veteran and the race was concieved and organized by a veteran. All in all, it was great fun, I already signed up for my second tri!

  • Comments: The course roads should have been fixed for the potholes. Also the volunteers didn't do enough at the key cross sections of the bike (near beginning of course). The road should have been marked off from pedestrians for the bike near the event. Had to slow down for them when coming in. Very frustrating.

  • Comments: Each year this race gets better and better. Chris makes little changes every year that make this one of the best events in the area. I think we had almost 600 entries this year.

  • Overall course based on my ability: Too hard

  • Comments: Great race I guess if you are in the front of the pack. Otherwise, not enough people to direct you where to go. The worst part was the athletes leaving the bike transition area with their bikes while other athletes were still riding or running. The finished athletes actually got in the way. When I was just about done with the bike segment, athletes were leaving in their cars and one driver almost drove into me. Same for the end of the run after coming off the trail. Lots of learning experiences here.
