  • Comments: This is my favorite race. Great location, great value, lots of fun, a REAL goodie bag w/Tshirt, beer tent, refreshments, etc. This is a fun grassroots-type race. It's been around for a while. Like they say, it is not a race, it's just for fun. A great race for a first timer or relay team. As a bonus, the results were online a few hours after the race.

  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: I had a goal in my head (based on no concrete data) that I wanted to complete the swim in 20 minutes, the bike in 45 minutes and the run in 20 minutes. I was thrilled that I beat all three of these goals, and overall I had a very successful first triathlon. I was especially excited that although the run felt awful, I was able to go sub-10 minute miles which I was not expecting. I think this was a great way to do my first race, on a familiar course with my husband there for support before I go and race in Chicago next month. I love the way this sport has changed my body and my mind, and am now officially hopelessly addicted! Onward and upward!
