October 6, 2007

Just did "My First". First I have to say that when I came Friday to pick up my race packet I was greeted by two very friendly and encouraging people (I didn't know then that Z was one of them). The swim kicked my butt (I'd only been swimming two weeks) but I made it through the rest and finished in a sprint ( which probably means I had too much left). What a feeling of accomplishment to finish at all!! I loved it!! ALL the staff was GREAT. So encouraging and so nice. All the athletes were also great! I thank you for helping me to accomplish a goal and for making it so enjoyable. When I get my swimming game up I'll definately tackle a Sprint.

I enjoyed competing in the My First Triathlon. You made it as stress free as possible.
Thanks again for this very first experience at a sprint triathlon.

I want to say thanx for a back to nature type event. It was well organized, the course was unique and I had fun. My award is really very nice. I hope to come there again next year.

The 4th Annual Fall Triathlon Festival Sprint Triathlon was the best race of the season! Your volunteers and staff did an awesome job with the race and each Buttar event gets better and better. It is always nice to see a group of individuals committed to hosting quality events and continually striving to improve the athletes' experience. I was proud to have finished as one of the Advocare Sprint Champions in my first year as a triathlon and I look forward to more Buttar races in the future.

I just wanted to say thanks, and let you know that Saturday was an
excellent race. I think the event was very well run, the course was
fun and SAFE, and that the sportsmanship was excellent. I
particularly enjoyed the run course and rural bike course - no cars.

Great Job this weekend to you, your crew, and the volunteers. Even with the threat of bad weather it made for great racing all the way around!

To all those that volunteered...GREAT JOB. The entire event was done in a very professional manner with wonderfully enthusiastic folks. Everyone I came in contact throughout the course were positive, supportive, and actively involved in ensuring the event went off well. Makes the race so much more enjoyable when you have volunteers out on the course that are so supportive. Like I said...GREAT JOB.
