"Wanted to drop you and the gang at Max Performance a special thank you for an extremely well run event. From a first time parents perspective you folks did a fantastic job, organizing and running a complex event. As a dad with 4 very athletic kids, I’ve sat through many downhill ski races, swim meets, etc, and the event you put on Sunday was one of the most fun and well run that I’ve come across. Thanks again to all those that were so helpful to a 1st timer"

"I checked the results and see that I came in LAST PLACE! Woohoo! This was my second triathlon but the first one I finished. I had a great time and the whole thing came off great. I definitely do not feel like a loser, this was a very big achievement for me. I feel like I jumped up and grabbed the bottom rung of the ladder, so at least I am on the ladder. I just wanted to take a moment to say thanks and keep up the good work."

"I had an amazing time on Sunday. As a newbie, the e-mails leading up to Sunday left me with few if any questions. The volunteers were all very help full and supportive and over all the experience was a 10. I'm hooked I will be at as many Max races as I can this year!! And, will recruit as many of my friends as I can. Thanks again for a great first race!"

“I am usually one of those participants who passes on the opportunity to provide feedback, probably to my own detriment since I find myself at the same races every year! But I can't pass it up this time; yesterday was my first triathlon and I had such a great experience I can't wait for the next one!

As a newbie, I had no idea what to expect and was very nervous. But you, your team, and the volunteers really took the anxiety of the situation away. Starting with the newbie email for preparation to having a separate wave and separate transition area, it was a very welcoming atmosphere. Your volunteers really took the time to make sure we were all aware of the little things no one would have asked (or known to ask!).

I would highly recommend completing a Max Performance race for anyone looking to enter their first triathlon.”

"This was my first tri and I LOVED it. I thought the event was very organized and very well run! You and your team did a great job. You made being a "newbie" not as scary as I thought it would be! Thanks for a great time. I will definitely do you again."
