• Comments: Results: http://raceresults.eternaltiming.com/index.cfm/20100307_Desert_Tria... Loved this race. There were lots of smiles at the finish, and few if any complaints about the organization. The sprint distance lucked out, as the weather held until I was at the car. The poor oly people raced in a downpour.

• Comments: This was a great event for my first triathlon: calm (but cold) water and flat bike and run courses. Unfortunately, I think it's just too far from home (3-hour drive) to be a viable option in the future.
