  • Comments: Generally a good race--very positive energy. On the down side: Expo disorganized (poor signage, e.g.). Parking options poorly organized/inconvenient. Wish the post-race food had been IN the finish area and/or a larger finish area. (all minor). NOT MINOR: Cars IN the bike race lanes NOT COOL!!!

  • Comments: Crowd management for the spectators was not great, and getting out was difficult. Too many people for the condensed space! But the Pleasant Prairie swim is one of the best in the area.

  • Comments: I felt this race went better than Danskin last year, due to the smaller field of athletes. It was also nice to know what to expect, which allowed us to plan for parking a little better this year. my fiance found that it nice to have his bike at the race site so he was able to ride back to the outlet mall with me. Last year I had to wait around 15 minutes for him to walk back to the car.

  • Comments: I was worried about the shuttles as Id read very negative things in the past about getting to-from the race. This year it was ironed out thank goodness. I felt that the expo was verrrrry poorly signed as to where you had to go what you had to do to check in, which line to stand in to just get in to rack your bike on Saturday......hello? how bout some signage, people, its a HUGE event. And dont tell me you only have L and XL shirts left when I check in at 11am! disappointing and not really a goody bag to speak of. Post race food was banana and bagel...thats it. Cool cap colors though! Biggest bummer was that the race is far enough away from my home that I had to stay overnight and most hotels had a 2 night minimum stay. But it turned out to be money well spent. I plan to do this race again next year.

  • Comments: Good race, biggest I've been too. Good performance for me. 81 girls signed up in my age group so my goal was top 20. I guess 69 finished and I got 10th, I'm happy with that. I know the areas I can cut time and I plan on working on that.

  • Comments: More porta-potties!! When you have ~2500-3000 women - 10 porta-potties DOESN'T DO IT!! This race is a bit spread out. You have to walk about 1/2 mile to get from bike transition to swim...and the parking is a bit of a hassle. I had to wait about an hour for my mom to get me to pick me up!
