  • Overall course based on my ability:

  • Comments: This was a well run KLM race, lots of helpfull volunteers, well marked courses, good decision making on the part of RD, only snafu was the bike mount/dismount location relative to transition. I really like the venue, it is a bit cramped but well worth the hassle.

  • Comments: can't beat it for the money....cheapest ran around....get what you pay for sometimes though.... BIKE TURN AROUND NEEDS A PHYSICAL MARKER!!!! CONE/OR A P-E-R-S-O-N !!!! heard of multiple people running through campgrounds/missing bike turn around, not as many as last year on wrong course though(some is there fault "athletes responsibility to know route" but could be helped by the organizer) Run turn around had a Water bucket so was same for all. Transition area/spectators/vendors/finish line was chaos!!!! People in the way of bikers coming in. Organizer has to work with limited space though....

  • Comments: Overall I think it was a decent event. There was one spot where they could have used a sign for the run, OLY this way, Sprint that way etc. There was a person there telling people verbally but I think a sign would have done the job. The signs used were great, just one more would have made it nicer.

  • Comments: I thought this race was every bit as good as the Tinman or KC Tri. A few glitches here and there but at least our bikes weren't toppling over at the transition area! The director was a great guy, direct and to the point and could answer questions without sarcasm.
