  • Comments: I like the course, just poorly done. The age groups were supposed to start at 0830, I arrived late, got my stuff in the transition area at 0755, and was told to clear the area. I was lat my bad, I didn’t get a spot on a rack, so I was set up against a fence and was able to mess with my stuff for a few mins. I went to the bathroom and was going to do a warm up swim, but when I emerged I saw my color swim caps lined up in the water. I ran putting on my cap and goggles and as soon as my toes touched the water we were off.

  • Comments: The volunteers need to be better prepared. One racer went the wrong way and was not corrected. I didn't see a person at a very critical corner until after I had dang near wiped out. Both of these problems can be chalked up to not knowing the course, but that is also what the traffic directors should help with.

  • Comments: This race has lots of potential. There were some pretty good athlets that showed up for this first annual event. I have been fighting some sort of respiratory crud for almost a week. I can't take this race as an indication of my progress and fitness. It was an excellent warm up for my "A" races coming up.
