• Comments: The course was somewhat hilly, especially on the bike course. Once you passed that portion though, the rest was nice and downhill. It was a great, beautiful sunny day for September. For my first triathlon, there was nothing more I could have asked for. The awards were amazing and location was very pretty. Thanks to all the volunteers, SetUpEvents for the VERY organized event, and my family and friends for coming to support me! :)

• Comments: This was my first race since spraining my ankle in January, so I decided to start with an easy sprint. The race felt good, and I was happy to see that I can still perform at a high level after the injury.

• Comments: Be prepared for the "rolling hills" in their description of the event to mean at least 2 standing bike climbs and a 30 plus degree grade to start the run.
