  • Comments: The race was a little unorganized: i.e. they made announcements about helmet stickers (there weren't any), they didn't announce the waves until we were in the water, and the food at the end was unusual (danish with icing, pound cake, and a warm watermelon). You could buy burgers, but I couldn't figure out where. Tons of great volunteers, though! A beautiful course, and fairly easy - no big hills on the bike. Giveaways included a cheap water bottle and a ring tee-shirt, plus some Hammer Gel and coupons. Parking wasn't too far away, and was clearly marked. One really neat thing was that, following the national anthem, we were treated to a Buddhist chant - maybe it was this that made me break my Sprint PR. : )

  • Comments: This race had a lovely course chock full of cheering townies along the entire stretch. It also was hilly enough in both the bike and the run to be a challenge, without breaking me! I would do this race again any day (um, with the exception perhaps of tomorrow!)

  • Comments: good race-learned a lot about open water swimming-like I can do it, completed a 1/2 mile in the water. Pretty special. Need to fight my demons and get back out in the open water a couple more times
