  • Comments: I thought the organizers did a good job with the event. I really liked the location of the event. The water / aid stations very well placed for both the run and the bike. The only complaint would be the swim start where both men and women were in a single wave for the half. This was my first half distance, so was disappointed as I chose this race because it was smaller.

  • Comments: Overall, I am pumped that I completed my first half - when I started this last year, I couldn't run a mile straight. Now it's time to get in shape so I can race one next year. For the event - Nice race - I would do it again. These smaller races are just my style.

  • Comments: One random thing that impressed me the most was the womens winner. I had made a comment to my dad how many really fit older women there were in the race. The womens winner was 51 years old, finished in 5:19, and fnished 12th overall. Very impressive. My compliments to her.

  • Comments: Nice course, but lack of police/volunteers to ensure racer safety on bike course. Took 21:44 off of last years time. Swim was ~5 min faster (no wetsuit last year though), bike was ~7.5 min faster and almost 9 min off the run. Despite wearing a wetsuit, my T1 time was faster too. Of course, I really only did 1 month of swim/bike training for last years race.
