Triathlon of Compassion was amazing..

Thanks to all the volunteers and fellow competitors for making it such a great "MY FIRST TRI" experience...

Thinking of "My Next Tri"... in Harrison Mills... early August..

I would strongly recommend Walnut grove I have heard bad things I was going to do that as my first tri but decided against it and moved to Langley and Walnut grove, however harrison  has an open water swim while the WG does not most guys here seem to like WG more.

Take a pass on My Next Tri... It is poorly organized, you won't get a t-shirt like advertised, the water is ice fricken, not warm like suggested.

If you want more info PM me..

Hi All..
Thanks so much for the feedback..
Based on what you've stated, I think I'll skip the Harrison Mill's event..
Would love any additional information on the one in Walnut Grove...

Cheers..

Stay away from the Harrison Tri. All the guy does is take your money and run. No shirts, no water stations, poorly marked course and the streets are not blocked.

Hello

I have'nt done the Harrison Mills tri but have registered and paid to race July 25. I have'nt heard any info from the race organizers in regards to package pick up etc... and the website looks as though it is no longer valid. Did the organizers take the money and run??? I'm beginning to wonder as there seems to be serveral bad reviews about this race. Hopefully the phone number given is in service....My advice for now is to pick another race.

It will happen, and there is nothing/no info to pick up.. You just drive out there and sign in... bring a friend, to park your car because T2/finish area may be 5 km away. So, you'll have to transition areas to set up some distance away from each other. And BRING A WET SUIT...

If you've already paid for it.. do it.. just be safe.
