Sprint Distance TRI on Navy base (Page 2)

Loved the race, even as bad as I did. I will definately be in it next year.

I have to say I am glad everyone else had a good time. I am going to pass on a lessons learned to Christina (by request) and ask all that attended to let me know what you liked/disliked/needs to be changed or added, so I can pass on a full list. I see her daily at the gym (right behind the building I work in) so I can explain things w/o hurting feelings.

I am trying to make next year even better so let me know. Need input from first timers as much as veteran triathlete's!

Clydesdales!

x 2 on the Clyde's/Athena division!  I'll state the obvious in the lack of port-a-potties!  The bouy's too!  I would have liked to seen a bike mount/dismount line too.  No one seemed to tell me where to dismount, only to slow down.  Could have just been me too!  Other than that, I don't think there is anything else I'd change!  Love the shirts too by the way.  It'll come in handy in the fall!

I enjoyed my race on the Base as well. It was extremely well run for a 1st year event. My only gripes are listed below:

- Late Arrival of Portopotties, and their position at the finish line (also next to the awards?)
- VERY tight U-Turns on the bike course
- And, in conjunction, cars parked right at the exits of the U-Turns...
- Water stop at the run Turn-around was way off the "racing line."

On a personal note, I was one of the first 100 to sign up, but didn't get a T-shirts, socks, etc... Kind of disappointed. It was also my first Triathlon, though I've been racing Du's for many years. I'm very happy to have competed at this event. If I stick with the swim, I would be more than happy to return. Hopefully it could be USAT sanctioned in the future. Congrats to all the other first-timers!
