  • Comments: Of course there is the remote finish but I have to say that although I technically (!?) did meet my goals I was pretty upset at the finish that we were not informed the run was so much longer.

  • Comments: This is a great race and very well organized. The only bad thing I have to say is the shirts were way too small. I ended up standing in line for 40 minutes to trade my small in for a large.

  • Comments: I really like this race, the bike course is fast, but with some small hills. And the run is challenging for me, but not too hard. I'm a bit annoyed that they didn't tell us the run was long, but I'm not sure what I would have done differently anyways. I guess this might be the last year ado this race for a few years, but I'll add it back to the schedule at some point for sure.

  • Overall course based on my ability: Too easy

  • Comments: Overall, this was one of THE best race experiences I have ever had, including all of my running races. I enjoyed the entire race, start to finish, and felt strong the whole way. I did great with nutrition, pacing and most importantly, had fun. This is a really big jump for me in confidence, because I've had some tough runs in my past few tri races. I just kept wishing for more on this race!

  • Comments: The volunteers were great. Throughtout the race, everything seemed well organized and well staffed. Two big problems that I had with this race are the inaccurate run course. There's no reason they couldn't have removed a block or the fisrt loop in the park to make a little closer to a 5k. And second, the lack of transportation back to the start. It was a little far and I saw no shuttles (except while I was running), and no signs of where to go to get the shuttle, and no volunteers pointing people in the right direction. A 30 minute walk back is not what I want after race. I was very disappointed in Georgia Multisports. Other than those things, and the extremely boring bike route along a major road, it was a pretty good race. Thanks to all the volunteers, including Neal who was sure to write my age in gigantic print. And all the NAMCers who volunteered and cheered for me even though I'm not one of them yet. :-)

  • Comments: I could have used one more drink station on the run since it was a little longer.
