I want to say this before I say all the nice things…
I did the Duathlon, paid $148.71, drove 2.25 hours to get here and after taking 2nd Place in my age group, I was told awards would be given out at 10 am but they were not until 11:30 am and then I never got my award because they said they don’t give age group awards to people that entered the Duathlon but they gave awards 5 deep to people that did the Triathlon.
I got home and sent the Director a message and she was very nice in her response but to me, it is wrong and is CHEAP. Duathlon athletes are a step above 5K & 10K racers and to pay all that money and then want to not give out a little $3.50 award shows no class on the race director. She is nice but cheap! The running course was on a golf course rather than a road and people had muddy shoes because of the rain the day before and the path was dirt and sand. I might have given high ratings on this event but I will NEVER do it again. Great food, nice finisher medal, and the courses were well marked. Nice tek shirt also.
