  • Comments: SetUp Events always pulls these off without a hitch. Great setting, great race. Maybe a few too many people for a sprint tri, but there were a lot of newbies having a good time, and that's a good thing.

  • Comments: The post-race food was awesome, though a medal would have been fun too. It would have been nice to have a few more kayakers out in the water to keep us in line.

  • Comments: Had a great time! It's on my list for next year!!!! I'm really happy with my results in this race. My times were in line with what I've been accomplishing in training, and what I expected for OW in the swim. Considering I really only got a chance to get into a true training schedule in mid-July, and I put much more effort these past couple weeks before this race, I'm happy with the results. My concentration was right on, I was relaxed, and I refused to think anything negative at all during the race. Those were my goals, and I accomplished them. I really can't complain.... other than... I was just getting started and now tri season is over?!?!?!?!?

  • Comments: I am giving it a 4, only because I've only done two and yes, this was better than Luray in terms of my not feeling like I was going to die, but it was only a difference in the bike. Was a fun race overall, and perfect for my abilities. I could kick some a$$ in this one next year.

  • Comments: i thought everything there went well, then again, i don't have anything to compare it to. i think this was the perfect race to start with..not too short but not so challenging that i had to fight through anything with a vengance

  • Comments: This was a great race and perfect weather for being the beginning of OCT. I am so pleased with the progress I've made this year. I have moved from BOP to MOP. But a bit depressed that the season is over. Glad that we have a fantastic tri club that is so supportive and fun to be around.
