  • Comments: First AG podium, which is great, but if I was against the average competition I'd be back in the B/MOP. Either way, a nice way to start off the season. While the race is probably too short, everyone is really nice and friendly.

  • Comments: Never thought I would run a FIRM race again, and after this one, I will most likely go back again next year. Not as much because it was that good, but I did this tri as my first one 9 years ago, and would love to PR after 10 years. If I really apply myself, possible contend for a medal. I was about 6 minutes off the podium, but I think my running can get back to the low 9's and the bike up closer to 20. Not sure how much I can improve on the swim as I am very steady there.

  • Comments: This race has it all. The pre and post events, sponsors, swag = so awesome. They even have a podium and great medals you can earn. Not to mention the event for the kids the day before. Stellar.

  • Comments: I thought this event was ok. I don't think they do a good job of disseminating information (ie. when does transition open?, would there be water stations on course?) but they got it done smoothly.

  • Comments: People left very early rather than waiting additional hours for others to finish. I understand why - it was Mother's Day after all. People are busy. I thought this took away from the race some.

  • Comments: Not much anyone can do about it but....that long swim wait is tough. You just need to get your head around what your actual start time will be.

  • Comments: I've heard mixed reviews about FIRM events. Overall, I thought it was well run and I had no problems. I would definitely do this race again and recommend it to others, especially if it's your first race and you're not a confident swimmer. The pool swim was great, didn't have to deal with getting kicked or punched in the "washing machine"...i'll leave that for Mooseman ;)
