From letters, phone calls, and emails:
-
From
Jennifer Robinson
via email: "This was my first triathlon and I had a wonderful time!
The event was very well put together! The volunteers were
wonderful! Thanks
for a great race!" We do indeed love the
work our volunteers do here at the Bucyrus YMCA. It takes
about 45 people on the course, plus all of the ladies that help us
with the post-race refreshments. And we truly appreciate the
safety services provided by our local police, sheriff, and ambulance
services. JH

From Mike Styer via
email: "After looking at the stats, I can tell you why my
times and Laurie Young's are incomplete. When we finished the bike,
there was no one at the transition area to help us figure out where
to go. We looked around and could not find anyone around to direct
us to the right path. We didnt see anyone at the bike finish, nor in
the transition area. We went out the bike entrance, and that must
have been the wrong spot. I would suggest that next year, you have
someone standing right there to guide runners out. Luckily, I did
keep track of my own times, so I can fill in my blanks."
Not sure what
happened there, Mike; somehow, you two are the only ones we managed
to miss. We'll take your suggestion under consideration.
(On another note, though--my son did a Tri at Deer Creek this past
weekend put on by HFP racing - they're a big outfit, and the race
was over 500 people - and they managed to miss a few splits too.
For the size that we are, we do what we can). JH

From Todd Brahler via email:
"Great event... This was my first tri and it was a great experience
Unfortunately, I had to
leave early (before the awards ceremony). Can you please e-mail me
the results. If so, please reply to all.
Thanks."
Thanks for the kind words, Todd. I believe Kim has emailed the
results to all the participants; if you didn't get them yet, the
results are also now posted here on the web page.
