  • Comments: keep in mind there was a 500 yard run to finish this race. I ran it barefoot over the road and then boardwalk...with my bike helmet still on! It's been a while since I've done a tri so I forgot it was on until it was too late to go back. :) I was extremely happy with my run pace over this small distance. Without having run since July 11th, I couldn't be happier with a 7:41/mile pace over this quarter mile. I can't say enough good things about the organization of this event. I am very thankful there was an aquabike option I could roll with on the day of packet pick-up the day before the race. What a great option for those who are dealing with injury. The food was incredibly good. There was more than enough water, gatorade, food, etc. Excellent display boards on tv monitors shaded in a tent...that said, I didn't see aquabike results posted, just the tri and du and tri and du relays. I HIGHLY recommend this race to fellow triathletes!

  • Comments: I would fo sho do this race again. Well run for an inaugural event. Really enjoyed the course. Also, if you are a vegetarian you must do this race because they had delish portobello mushroom burgers for us to eat after the race.

  • Comments: An outstanding job esp. considering it was a first time event. Bethany Beach was a welcoming community for the event. I will go back. Considering there was less than 3 minutes between 2nd and 6th place, I will train for shorter faster races as I plan for this race next year. Just improving T-1 and 2 would have probably gotten me on the podium.
