  • Organised?Yes
  • Events on time?Yes

  • Lots of volunteers to help?Yes
  • Plenty of drink stations?Yes

  • Post race activities? Bad
  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: It's a first time event so all in all, it was well done. The distance errors affected everyone so that wasn't a big deal but it did screw up times (I also didn't need to go any farther that I needed to on my first triathlon). Post race nutrition/beverages were lacking. There was only water to drink and nachos and cheese from Qdoba. No gatorade, bananas, bagels, etc. Plus, I really like seeing a table full of beer at the finish (this is the best thing that has happened to running races). Will definitely do it again next year and plan on doing at least three per summer. Now I just have to figure out this open water swim thing...

  • Comments: Since this is my first race, I don't have anything to compare it to. My only suggestion would be to have better post race food for the competitors. The last thing I really want to eat when I'm finished racing is chips and queso. I thought this first year race went very smoothly and it was well run. I plan on doing it again next year.
