• Comments: Great race put on by HFP. The course was much better than last year. Waited around a bit too long to get the transition bags back after the race. The results were kind of a mess. I saw 2 women with sub 30 minute 10Ks (obvious they cut the course). Also when you put overall women and overall men in 2 separate categories, it makes it difficult for me to pull out consistent results. Plus they totally missed T1 times and put them in the bike. Only reason I really care is because I am a data junkie. Other than the results issue, it was a great event.

• Comments: Like I told my wife, this was more about meeting the beast and getting familiar with it rather than trying to conquer it. That's for next time.

• Comments: Kept everyone around for almost 2 hours before cancelling the awards ceremony due to progblems with the results. They blamed it on the number of penalties but later that night said it was a computer glitch. T1 times were also screwed up. On the course it was great but timing issues were a huge negative. This was my first Olympic race ever and I really wanted to find out if I broke 3 hours.
