  • Comments: I think this race is one of the best kept secrets in Southern California. it is a small venue in a very pretty place with a nice open course and a fairly relaxed atmosphere. (Great Destination Race) But be warned, this race is very competitive. The podium in my AG were all Sub 2:10. At my Oly earlier this year, my time was 10 seconds slower but I took 2nd place :)

  • Comments: I thought it was a great race, almost too on time :). The volunteers were great, there were lots of aid stations and people telling you exactly where to go, and what to look out for. The bike course is challenging but not impossible.

  • Comments: This is a good race. It's tough, but there is a really good vibe around it, the people are friendly and the event went pretty well (there was some confusion, it seemed, with some of the run course-- people not knowing where to go). Overall, this is a race I would definitely do again!
