  • Comments: Well if you are still here, i, as always, appreciate the time you took to read my race report. I am sure i have offended someone, tough deal with it. But for those who know me, know i call it like i see it, and make fun of all things and people, especially myself. I live life to have fun, but also have a serious competitive streak that has been inside me since i played some pro and semi pro sports when i was in my teens 20's. That never leaves. After the second half last year, my heart and body was broken, every fucking bone and muscle in my body was screaming at me to stop. I have said before my world is black and white, it is on or off, and i did my best fake to try and stay with my fitness and passion for racing, but it just wasn't enough. In the end i just quit. I pretty much excommunicated myself from anything to do with racing, stopped talking to all my friends and kind of just checked out on life. Between December and June was a very very dark period of my life, i am overly critical

  • Comments: Time to buckle down and race like a man, but all in all, a great race for me. I'm still learning this stuff, so the fact that I PR'd today by about 7 minutes isn't quite the cause for celebration that it should be. If I'm still doing that kind of crush in a year I'll dance a jig, but I'm still at the stage where I'm improving every time, so without trying to sound like an egomaniac, I kind of expect PRs right now. I'll definitely do this race again, I like the course and it will give me an annual measuring stick. Great to meet Rudy, looking forward to seeing him again in the future.

  • Comments: Well run event by Mossman Tri Club. Definitely a great race to bring the family. Less than 600 racers to it didn't have the huge race feel to it.

  • Comments: Thanks to everyone who was involved with putting on a good race. From the registration to the volunteers to the food at the end, it was a great race and I am glad I participated in it. This was my first tri with a .5 mile swim and second tri overall. I know I have a lot of work to do in the swimming dept. It was a gorgeous day for a triathlon and I am already looking fwd to next year. Great Job Everyone!

  • Comments: I thought if timing chips were handed out at the registration the day before, it would've eliminate the long line for it. It was a great race and many thanks to organizer and volunteers! I realized after I got home that my heart rate monitor was displaying in % in stead of HR. duh! My maximum hate rate was 210. I guess I pushed myself pretty hard. Wanna try again next year.

  • Comments: There was a few traffic issues with cars pulling out. The course pavement was in poor shape for a bike race. The course if technical for a 2 loop race with 600 people in it. The location is very nice. Beach, bathrooms, lots of parking. I will be back next year and I may get there 2 hours early to avoid the same mistakes.

  • Comments: Lots and Lots of volunteers at this race. Which was good, because i think there are more first timers than a lot of the races i've been doing. They had a lot of good sponsors providing food, etc. Very well sponsored race.

  • Comments: This was a really great race- tons of volunteers, cold water, amazing food (the warm bread and pasta salad blew away the usual bagels and orange slices- although they had those too). Volunteers were super friendly- including the massage therapists and the bike shop that was there to help. Not too many spectators, but I may have been more sensitive to that since nobody came to the race with me. Beautiful setting. Overall, totally worth the hour and ten minute drive.

  • Comments: I really enjoyed this race. I felt it was very well organized save for some chaos around body marking. Once we were all properly marked, the transition area was spacious and they gave us ample warning to get down to the beach. The finishers medal was pretty cool and great music throughout the morning. After-race food was great- thanks Stew Leonard!

  • Comments: Registration the day before you had 4 lines to stand in - never seen that - you stood in the first line, showed your ID and USAT card - they told you your number. Next line gave you numbers, next line you showed them bib and they gave you chip. Next line got you Tshirt and swag bag. How stupid a setup. Having volunteered at 2 race registrations this was a first. Race day you had to go all the way over to where registration was to get body marked, could not bring bike into tent but could not go into transition until marked....rather retarded and disorganized. Most of the rest of the way had enough volunteers though heard some of the first runners ran too far due to no one there (we had no one there either but at least we noticed the signage...)

  • Comments: This was an excellent experience for first race. Great course, very well organized, very friendly, very well marked. The course is largely flat and fast. We lucked out on the swim as the sound was smooth and the visibility was great. This is a race I will definitely do again. It was really enjoyable!
