  • Organised?
  • Events on time?

  • Lots of volunteers to help?Yes
  • Plenty of drink stations?

  • Post race activities?
  • Overall course based on my ability:

  • Comments: EventPowerLI.com runs a good beginner sprint event. However I plan on suggesting they offer more racks than a regular Olympic event because a lot of beginners and first-timers use mountain bikes which tend to take up A LOT more room than road and tri bikes. In my rack alone there were three or four mountain bikes and the bikes were literally wedged in together. I am much more looking forward to the organizations Hamptons Olympic and Montauk Half Ironman event.

  • Comments: In all this was an excellent, very well-run event. All of the volunteers and employees were very kind, cheerful and helpful. Kudos to Event Power LI. Love the goody back, top-notch t-shirt, love the finishers medal, the course was clean and well-prepped (fresh top soil was applied and raked out in some rough spots) body-marking (my first experience with that) was really cool, too. Lastly this event was a huge success mostly because I met two new friends my same age who are just like me. We chatted it up before and after the event, made plans to train together, exchanged e-mails, and one of the them told me something amazing I never knew... That there is an XTERRA Triathlon less than a 1/2 mile from my house!!! How crazy is that!! Of course I signed up for it as soon as I got home. Now I gotta do more research on a mountain bike - full supsension or hard-tail? Hmmm...

  • Comments: I loved this race and since it was my first time doing this particular race, I was really trying to do my best. At times it was like being blind cause i had no idea where we were going. Now i have times to beat, improvements to make and I will be gunning for them in August.

  • Comments: This was my 3rd year doing this event but my first time doing a relay of any kind. The fact my wife and her cousin can't wait to do this event next year is the best thing I could have heard. We finished with a big smile, they now have a goal to go for some hardware for next year. Guess I better get my act together on swimming to help give them that opportunity. Even better, there is an very good change they will convince other memebers of the family to do a relay next year as well. Other members are anxious about it now. And the diseas keeps on spreading. :)
