  • Comments: Signed up as a Clydesdale, they started my timing chip as an age grouper. Shuffled Clydesdales to the back of the order at last second. Still have cheap looking medals, although the tech shirt fabric has improved (the design hasn't)

  • Overall course based on my ability:

  • Comments: Two things I would change. First, put the final swim buoys directly out from the beach exit. TOO many people made a hard right at the buoy and exited the water early, running up the beach to the beach exit. Some could even have cut directly across the grass to the transition area as that was where the timing strip was. Too easy to cheat with this setup. Second, go back to posting the results at the finish. For the first time, they chose not to do this. So we're all stuck waiting at home for our results. Hope they're up soon!

  • Comments: All in all, I had a great time at this race. Being my first outdoor competition, I wasn't sure what to expect and went into with a goal of crossing the finish line...and under 1:40 total time wouldn't hurt either :) This gives me a good baseline for future races and plenty of things to work on.

  • Comments: Great race, a great vibe with all of the spectators. I feel pretty good with my results and I am trying to figure out if I how I can possibly improve and PR everything in the next race. I guess I need to get some speed work in between now and then.

  • Comments: This is a fun race to do and fairly well organized. I went with my montre "don't be a panzie" i was able to come close to last year's time with having over 6 months off running due to injury so I was pleased with how i did yet wanting more.

  • Comments: Can't beat racing in your own backyard! Adjusted my finish places based on three entrants with no swim times. Based on their history in triathlons, their overall times are missing the swim segment: Filippi, Rose, Groom.

  • Overall course based on my ability: Too easy

  • Comments: The course itself was a bit on the easy side for me, though probably very accessible to novices (of which there were many). I tend to prefer hillier rides. Still fun and I'm glad I went. I do tend to feel that Wendy's sponsoring a triathlon is a bit like Genghis Khan sponsoring a peace conference, but at least they weren't serving cheeseburgers at the finish line.

  • Comments: I absolutely loved this race. I have heard a lot of bad reviews, but I didn't see anything that would keep me from coming back. This was my first UltraFit race. HFP seems to be a little more motivating and the atmosphere is a little more friendly, but I still think this race was awesome.

  • Comments: the good - small swim waves, an army of volunteers, fast results posting, well organized, great weather the bad - i don't think bike out and in the same port is equitable (though in this race it worked to my advantage) -some of the results are inaccurate

  • Comments: I didn't train as hard as I did for my first tri back in April. Took some things for granted. I learned a lot at this race and coupled with what I learned at my first race I am anxious to train for and run my 3rd tri. Will look at something this fall. I really want to be able to swim the entire swim without stopping.

  • Comments: I'm sure that this would have been a great event if I was prepared to make it a good event. This race was over for me before I even started it. I came to this race just after having a vacation and on the tail end of an ear infection. Basically I had three strikes against me before even starting the race. I will make sure to be in a much better position for the next race.

  • Comments: Ultrafit races are generaly late getting started so need to plan warm-up for it. Harsh bump coming back over the highway at end of bike. Big accident there this year. Lots of new Triathloners in this race, good race for that. Wish organizers would stress bike safety more for those not used to bike racing. (Stay right!!! Hold your line, signal hazards (lots of water bottles in the road) etc.)
