In 2009, I did all Multisport events
(6 total I think
)
In 2010, I did all Subaru events
(6 total I think
)
Multisport events are not as competitive
(it is a LOT easier to podium in your AG in a Multisport event
).So, if you are looking to be the best in southern ontario for your AG, you want to compete in Subrau events so you get a proper measure of the "best" competition.
However, if you are simply racing against yourself, looking to set a PB, or simply get out and have a good time, either series will do just fine.
For me, I will be doing a little more Multisport events this summer because Subaru has far too many strange distance triathlons
(e.g., 750m-30k-7.5k races
). I am looking for the globally recognized distances
(OLY, SPRINT, HIM
).
Multisport sticks to those distances for nearly ALL races in the summer. The only chance of doing an OLY distance race in Subaru series is Guelph Lake I. That's it.
Multisport has Gravenhurst, Bracebridge, Cobourg, Wasaga Beach, and Lakeside as the proper OLY distance/ Sprint Distance categories.
Similar prices for registration in each series.
That's my 2cents
