"The triathlon was a blast! I participated as a team this year with a few of my friends and we had a great time. Next year we plan to do the enitre race as single participants just to say we did it! The only change that could be made to make the event better would be the order. Swim, bike, run would be the best way. We also registered late and still had no problem getting into the race. Very well organized. I can tell many people worked very hard to put this together. Great job!"

"Other than the major computer glitches when trying to figure results, it was a huge success! Great volunteers! Courses were marked very well. Food was good. This was our 2nd triathlon and we had a 37% increase in participants over last year. Fantastic! We gave string backpacks with the last name embroidered on them to each participant instead of stuffing everything into paper envelopes. It's 'green' for the environment and they can use the bags for training purposes."
