  • Comments: After the race, I walked over to the posted results, and saw that I was listed as first in my AG, but noticed that the posted times were gun times, and not actual, so I couldn't be sure I had actually won until they sorted everything out. This proved to be a circus, but it seemed to be a problem of the timing company, not the RD. Eventually, they handed out awards for top 3 OA male and female. My friend, Kayla, got 1st female. They immediately stopped the presentation, and asked for them back. A few minutes later, they tried it again, with Kayla receiving 3rd OA, but when they got to 1st, the woman they gave it to tried to correct them, saying her time wasn't that fast. They told her to keep it for now, and they'd sort it out later. They went on to award the AG's, and I was still 1st. 2nd place was 5 1/2 minutes behind! Later in the official results posted online, Kayla was listed as 2nd! Way to go! I still consider this to be a well-run event, and will probably continue

  • Comments: I really enjoy this race. It was the first triathlon I ever did so my wife and I come back to it every year. It is small but there are a couple guys that are just really fast (and they are mostly in my age group). Great first race or early season warm up.
