  • Comments: A little chaotic... running the 3 races at one time was very confusing for the volunteers and especially the Olympic distance athletes. Volunteers were unsure of which way to direct athletes, depending on what length race they were doing. I had no issues, but I heard a lot of frustrated outbursts around me.

  • Comments: Couple of the things that were done my the race organizers were a little effed up in my opinion. Luckily I know the RD, so I will be chatting with him. I think it was too much to have the Super Sprint, Sprint, and Oly on the same day. It caused some problems on the bike and run course with people taking the wrong turns and accidentally cutting the course.

  • Comments: No water set up for before the race, just a small issue! Swim distance not advertised on the web site, or mentioned at the race. THAT was really odd! Bike distance not accurate. But, I shouldn't be an armchair race director! Great food after, and they did NOT run out! Cute awards for first...little bobble head runners! 7th OA female!! Yeah, felt good, and results sort of showed it! Guess the mega miles riding has helped!
