  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: Nice race, it was a lot of fun. The swim was nice, would have been a bit cool to do with out a wet suit. The bike was fun and challenging, coming down the killer hill that was a pain to climb was fun. The run was great, nice hiking trail through the forest. Aid stations were kind of sparse, since it was kind of cool it really wasn't an issue, but if it had been hotter it would have been hard on the run.

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

  • Comments: Constructive criticism is good right? Being over by 50% on the swim is a bit of a safety risk. The bike course was short. Reservoir height varies so if the swim distance is not consistent from year to year that is understandable, but the bike course is fixed. It should be accurate. There were only two porta potties to support the whole event. The caterers at the BBQ were pretty mediocre. Mother's Day is a tough sell for a lot of potential entrants. If entries went up there might be more funds for more lifeguards and more porta potties. In the constructive praise department: Good location for an event. The reservoir seemed pretty clean, the bike course was fun (where was the 60mph downhill we were promised?) and the run trail was scenic. Good t-shirt too. Now all of us folks who thought we were qualified for a long sprint can be confident we can do an olympic swim, because we just did one.

  • Comments: Good hill climbing course and off road running course. Longer than a sprint. But it was pretty fun. Need better directions on website and help when signing in. would have been there earlier but missed 2 turns. needed that time to get ready and find a spot in Transition area. Everyone was really nice though
