  • Comments: Jack and Adams is the greatest! Jack was nice enough to let me help with packet pickup and let me pass out some samples for my sponsor. I love their races and appreciate all the work they put into them. If you're in Austin, J&A is the place to go! BIG THANKS TO ALL THE VOLUNTEERS!

  • Comments: The only thing that would have made the race better would be not having the heat. The whole event was pretty much clearing out before noon, it was just too damn hot. There was not alot of shade for the post-race and the sun was just beating us down.

  • Comments: Jack and Adam's puts on a GREAT Race! Tons of volunteers everywhere, events right on time, announcer the whole time, GREAT after-race food and events--truly high class race and if I can do it again, I will. For schwag everyone got a t-shirt, a running hat, and 1-lb of that coffee that I got more of for winning. The only bad thing is the water you swim in, but it's a sprint...you can live with it. Had a great time today--my first USAT AG win! I hope there are more! Saw jkron grab 3rd place hardware--we both were sporting our BT shirts on the podium--not just T3 and Texas Iron place in races here! The race gave me lots of confidence and further convinces me that I need to shape up in some personal discipline areas (i.e. really truly slim down back to where I was after deployment/during the marathon) and I will be faster. My bike training is definitely paying off and I am so glad I love the bike. So I love the bike, I love the run, and I tolerate the swim--not slow, but not first

  • Comments: Only been to 1 other try and 1 du before this, but this one was way better than both. Lots of good food, beer, music, and festivities. Will definitely try to do this one again. Racing with 800+ people was a new challenge for me but a good experience. My other races were much smaller.
