“This was one of the best run events I have ever experienced. Everything was first rate. The cooperation of the volunteers and police was more than I'd hoped for. Excellent, excellent, excellent.”

“Outstanding. Best organized tri I have attended. Most fun, best volunteers, most energy, very friendly event. The course was great, people directing traffic did an excellent job. Big white markers on the beach (Red Bull) were great to navigate back to shore.”
