  • Comments: I was a bit disappointed with my time. A few weeks before the race, I did a brick on the course and set a PR and felt absolutely great. In subsequent bricks and on race day, I couldn't come close to my PR and didn't feel as good. I really like this race - especially since it goes right past my house. I need to re-evaluate my training if I'm going to reach my sub-2hr goal.

  • Comments: Was 3 minutes slower than last year. One minute was in transition as I didn't wear bike shoes last year. Didn't bike as much this summer and it showed. Need to get focused and train properly.

  • Comments: I still love this race. It is very well organized, full of volunteers, and with the safest open course I've used. The only way to make it better would be open water, but that is geographically impossible. First class race.

  • Comments: Great race. Well organized, and VERY well staffed, especially the bike course. There were literally TONS of police to help with traffic flow. The only delay was a delay at the start, because it was too dark to start at the scheduled 7 AM time. Overall, though, a superb event. As far as my performeance, while there are certainly areas for improvemet, I still took second in my AG! WOOOHOOOOO! The fall really just disappointed me personally. I should have stayed more focused, but it was my friends' first tri, and in cheering him on I drifted into a curb and fell. Fortunately, I was stil able to take second in my AG, and the guy who took first beat me by about 9 minutes, so the fall really was irrelevant overall. Still, we triathletes tend to be perfectionists, so the fall was the one real blemish on the race. Oh, one more humorous footnote; when I ran into T2, I jumped out of my cleats and threw on my running shoes practically without looking. WHen I crossed the finish line, I looked

  • Comments: I was totally exhausted and in pain, but I loved it. I can't wait to train more and do more races. I'm signing up for the ThanksgivingDayRace and looking for more things to do. I'm also going to start looking at races for next year.

  • Comments: It seemed like a well organized race, and there was only water in the transition area and about a mile into the run, I might have just not seen the others, but I tend to miss things like that when I'm concentration on other things, like trying to put on wet socks, eat a gu, and drink a pint of water at the same time
