  • Comments: I liked this race. It is a great race for beginners since there is the super sprint distance. There was some confusion on the run course over who was going what direction. Luckily I knew one of the guys at the water station and he knew I was doing the sprint so he was able to shout out to me where to go but I do know a couple of people got pointed the wrong way. But that will happen when there are multiple distances. But overall definitly a good well run race.

  • Comments: Honestly, for the hefty price tag attached to this race, I expected it to be a bit better organized and for the post race food and activities to be better. Yes, it's for a good cause, but a premium price demands a premium race experience. The Awards presentation was just ridiculously long. As for Charles, enjoy the victory while you can, my "friend". You have rekindled the fire in my belly. I will train each day with the no other thought on my mind than crushing your spirit and exposing you for the mangy, lowdown, ambushing coward that you are. Oh, and congrats on taking second place in your AG, Charles. Azz-hat.

  • Comments: The only personal gripe I have is that the overall winners were also included in the age-group awards. The OA first and second were also the age-group first and second in the M40-44. I took 5th in the age group but would have podiumed otherwise. Not a big deal, but I prefer when the RD take the OA winners out of contention for the age-group awards.
