• Comments: Definitely a challenging course. I'm not planning on doing all three again next year. Right now the plan is to do this Oly-distance race again but maybe I'll do one of the sprints, too. I do wish they had some Gatorade at the finish line. The oranges really hit the spot, though.

• Comments: Overall this was a good course and a nice race but it was really the fist hot (I mean hot) weekend of the year and I think it took the race director by surprise. The bike course had no aid stations and while the run course had lots of aid, they were running out of water and cups and I think they were picking up cups tossed by runners and re-using them. Once I figured that out, I stopped taking water so I didn't catch anything. At the end there was no water except the drinking fountains at the restrooms at the park. There were some pissed off thirsty people.
