  • Comments: I had heard Jack's put on a great race and they did not disappoint. Good venue and organization, food & drink, post-race atmosphere & music. Pretty cool having some pros out there and getting to see what fast swimming looks like. Thought the "generic" theme was a neat gimmick. Everything was generic and plain-Jane; the race shirts, bib numbers, water bottles, awards, etc. Kind of like triathlon; if there's a choice between complicated and simple, I'm picking simple.

  • Comments: There was only 1 water station during the run at the halfway mark. Given the heat, I thought there should have been 2.

  • Comments: This was my first triathlon. I can't wait till my next race. My goals for this race were: 1) Finish strong : No walking, bike at my avg, swim well - Except for swimming I did well. 2) Finish in 1:41 - I beat it by 2 minutes. That really good for me. Nothing to brag about in terms of my rank here. But I was very happy with my results. I know how to do better.

  • Comments: Jack and Adams puts on a FANTASTIC race. I had a great time, and would definitely do this race again. It was nice to improve my times in every aspect of the race (all segments, including transitions, were my fastest pace yet). The water guns were a fun little wrinkle. My only small gripe is that there was only one water station on the run, and the water was in these tiny dixie cups...it was nowhere near enough water. Enjoyed meeting you Courtney...keep up the good work. Eric and Dennis, you were both looking good, and both a lot faster than me! Sorry I missed you after the race. Jeff, hope to meet you at the next one. Another neat little side note. Desiree Ficker, one of the top professional triathletes in the United States, actually took the time to come and do this race. She is very fast, and has a bike I drool over (Felt B2). It is cool to see these pros (Ficker, Cleveland, Fisher) coming to local races and interacting with all of us regular folks. Finally, I realized
