  • Comments: At first I felt that Hy Vee took a step back this year. I was not happy with the decision to change from an Olympic to a Sprint, but it was certainly the right call. If we would have tried to do 4 loops on the bike course it would have been way too crowded. Especially considering the number of first timers that go to Hy Vee. After all is said and done, they were able to make logistical changes to a course affecting 2,000+ athletes and do so in a ver seemless routine. I'm glad they did not cancel the race as I'm sure that was an option too. I enjoyed the race. I was happy with my performance. The swag was good again and I will be back next year!!!
