  • Comments: The only bad thing I could say about this Set-up race was they had run out of water at the finish. I think they should have had another water stop for the run.

  • Comments: Things would have been okay, but in this heat, there should have been more water out on the bike and run course. And there should have been water at the finish line!

  • Comments: It was great to see Sue and meet some new Bt'ers. It was awesome to see Doug and our kids out there. My kids had never been to any of my races, so that meant a lot. Bottom line is my good swim and bike in contrast to my sucky run just motivates me more to be a better runner. I know I can do it...it's in there. I will just focus and concentrate on that now. With a lot of my big life stuff behind me and great stuff happening right now, I can find that focus again.

  • Comments: Everything was great. I always think Setup does a good job. I do have issues though with not having water at the finish line. Thats just not cool (no pun intended).

  • Comments: I thought it was a blast and proud that I trained and completed it with ease physically - motivated because I did well and have tons of room to improve. Excited first time ever broke 9 minutes in run.

  • Comments: Despite the weight gain and despite the 1 year without a race, I still was pretty consistent to my other race times. I had a PR on the swim and I had a GREAT time. It was the first time Doug and I got to do a tri together and that component was really cool. I love the competition (in my head I always think I am winning!) and I love the training and the sport. Holy hell that was fun. More, please. :)

  • Comments: I didn't think that there was enough water stops on the run. I know that most people don't drink that much in a small race but I would have like to see more. I missed the beginning of the run course because there was no one directing out of transition. My husband commented that he felt there was not enough safety people on the water. I will do this race again next year! Overall results are just the women.

  • Comments: I think to race was very well run and it stared on time, so that was really nice. There was a lack of water stations I thought. The first one had no water, only ice, I guess they'd run out and the other was 2 miles in in the run. Otherwise it was one I would do again.

  • Comments: Again, I wish the organizers would try to take care of us back of the pack people a bit better. I will say that this race did have all of their volunteers still out on the bike course and the run was very clear and easy. I just had a brain collapse in the transition and wish someone could have pointed it out to me. Oh well, it just makes me look like I ran my race at a minute faster than normal pace. I am really happy and I will do this race again.
