  • Events on time?Yes

  • Lots of volunteers to help?Yes
  • Plenty of drink stations?Yes

  • Post race activities? Bad
  • Overall course based on my ability: Too hard

  • Comments: If you are not used to hills then this course is not for you. I know of 7 people that pooped chains during the race and 1 guy that popped his chain twice. seems high for a hilly race but its hilly. the ymca facilities were great. very disappointed that setup events only gave medals to the 1st person in each age group. bring bug spray for post race as the gnats come out to get you. awards were very late starting.

  • Comments: Hard to judge the race since it was my first tri but not my first competition. A little unorganized initially but great traffic control through most intersections. The police stopped every car if a cyclist was approaching. The director wants us to email him suggestions and they will include: water stations in the run mile markers on the run time the event better system with the running shoes (two pair did not get to T2 until several minutes after the competitors). I don't think anyone was writing our numbers down as we crossed but my wife thinks I came in 20th. That's also competing against relay teams so I don't really know how I did.
