  • Comments: Love these TTP races. No huge production involved, but they draw good fields and put on quality events. I'll continue doing those that fit into the schedule. A little disappointed to not have a official bike split, but I had it on my Garmin and it was not the fault of the race organizers. I was just glad to get this race in, given today's nasty weather.

  • Comments: It was a good race overall. I was happy with my performance as it was a sprint PR for me, but there are still some areas for improvement. I did qualify for Age Group Nationals from this race, so that's a good thing to complete on the first race of the year.

  • Comments: As always a great showing by the TTP folks. The shirts are 10x better this year. I had a great start to the season on the run and I have some areas that were illustrated as needs for improvement. A great learning experience along with a PR by almost 3 min over last year.

  • Comments: Good. A little crowded at some points on the bike with only 3 minutes between decent sized waves on an 11+ mile course. Great volunteers and overall nice course.

  • Comments: It was a good race. Well organized. I had lots of friends there which makes it a good time. Rode down there with Brian (trailrunner)which was a good time. Met Tommy's wife, Dee and Karen's husband, Tom, Nora's boyfriend, and Sarah's sister and boyfriend. It was a good day... Life is good...

  • Comments: A great season opener. They always do a great job and there is lots of local talent. Don't kid yourself though, this course is deceptively hilly.

  • Comments: My overall time was about 4 minutes faster than this same race last year, but I was about 4 minutes slower than I wanted to be -- Improvement, just not as much as I'd hoped for -- But, for the first race of the season, I'll give it a B overal...

  • Comments: Challenging for a Sprint. Only my second tri so only can compare to Peachtree City Sprint, which was a little easier (especially the run). Goal was 1:20, so only came 32 seconds short, so overall pretty satisfied.

  • Comments: Excellent race, especially for 500 racers in a smaller park. I figure getting aero will help the bike time, and more running will help the running time. I deviated from my training the couple weeks prior to the race, so that was a bit of a factor too. Overall, I had a great time and a great race. Pics coming.

  • Comments: This is a great race but I thought it was simply too crowded. Transition was a traffic jam. Didn't see a lot of volunteers either. The atmosphere among the participants is always great though, I will definitely be back next year.

  • Comments: Ii was disappointed in the race this year( I thought last year was great.) If I were a novice I would have had no clue where to go what to do. Very few volunteers. I thought transition was crowded! very difficult to get through with the bike. Last year was no problem. I think they need to limit the race to 400. Post race was non existent no info on when times would be posted no announcer, I saw 1 volunteer in the 1/2 hour I was there waiting for the times to be posted.
