  • Comments: A PR for this course by 11 seconds. Slower on the Swim, T1, and Bike. Faster on T2 and the run. This was a great race for me and I feel really good about it. I also got to take pictures of my wife as she finished the bike and the run portions of the race. We had a great time. This was the 3rd race this year of identical distance on the same course. I've learned a lot about triathlon and myself through these events and while I hope to do some different events next year I hope to do at least one of these 3 again next year.

  • Comments: TBF is very organized--at least it looks that way from the 2 races I have done with them this year. Rancho Seco is a good place to do the races, I just wish they could close it off to traffic.

  • Comments: Only due to fire road run..bleh! Overall this was an improvement for me but there is plenty of room for more ...I did enjoy myself much more than the last race so that is a bonus too. So much I'm looking at my next race option..must be nuts! And they still didn't call my name at the finish!!

  • Comments: I rated this race as just right for me mainly because I'm too new to be saying that I kicked ass. I did do ok.. but there is still room for improvement.

  • Comments: I have now done three triathlons. I have been in "survive" mode, rather than "race" mode. I now know I can swim in open water, bike and run. I am a competitive person by nature but haven't felt so during tris yet. I would like to feel more competitive next year. The race was great, the heat wasn't. I wish there would be a different run course. My mom, dad, kids, nieces/nephews, sis in law were all there cheering me, hubby and brother on. That was really fun.
