The second annual Tri For The Cure AZ took place April 20, 2008. Over 900 women and children came…read moreout to participate and there were spectators galore! There was a great energy at the event and it was fun more than competitive so i totally recommend it to beginners or people who want to get a taste of what doing a longer distance triathlon is really like. It's also more appealing for first time triathletes because the swim takes place in a pool - much easier than open water! The distance is short for triathlons, even shorter than the normal sprint distance. It consisted of a 400 meter swim, an 8 mile bike, and a 2 mile run. There were options for people to do relay and duathlon as well. Originally, my friends and I thought we'd be starting at 7am and done by 8:30, but there was a delay in the start, and the way that it was set up, they started each person separately, so we we spent the entire morning there. Since the transition area closed at 6am, it made for a long day... but it all worked out! The event ran smoothly once it began and the pool was great! The bike course was a square and pretty flat, so it was easy enough to do the two laps... and the run was a one-mile loop so it went by pretty fast as well. They had adequate water stops on the run and the park we ran through was beautiful. Even the expo (which took place at Gainey Village) was fun... and it's obviously all for a great cause - I lost both of my grandmothers to breast cancer so it's one that hits close to home... I pray we'll find a cure soon. Now, the question is, what's our next race? :)

This can be a test to see if anyone actually reads my reviews, haha, and can offer suggestions on how to contact yelp to change the event title. Everything Gabi M. reviewed regarding this event is right on the money. Great sprint triathlon for beginners (and veterans). I did this tri as a relay both in 2009 and 2011 and both times my teammates and I had a great time. Both times I brought my hubby and son and they had fun too. My teammates and I plan on doing this again next year so it'll be my third year doing this race. And I'm considering doing some that are longer distances too!

(My 14th Half this year!)…read more Phoenix, Arizona: my hometown, so to speak, since moving there during my 5th grade year. What I looked forward to most was running alongside a couple of my childhood friends, ones who I've known forever, it seems (and ones whom you could never have told me I would be running a Half Marathon with so many years later.) Nostalgia--as it always does when it comes to my Phoenician classmates--delights. So when a 13.1 came up, one that would bring me back to my cactus roots in the desert, I registered. The Illuminations Half, Arizona--having been its inaugural in 2014--takes place upon the beautifully scenic golf course trails of the JW Marriott Desert Ridge Resort. Although it commences at sundown--and, believe me, you'll need a headlamp for this run--there's really no escaping the gorgeousness of the resort itself. My photos--some taken during daylight hours in order to fully illustrate and capture the surrounding areas--stand as testament. The trails, illuminated by glowsticks--hundreds and hundreds of glowsticks--direct runners along the greens, lakes, fairways, and residentials outlining the course. At times, there are bottlenecks and congested impediments, so emphasizing PR's shouldn't be prioritized, but they can be overlooked. As dark as it becomes along this run, one that begins around 6pm, you shouldn't set caution to the wayside. Navigating this run carefully is important: some Halfers neglected the signs, running the 5K mistakingly. There are also times when the route crossed itself, runners having to slow their pace, yielding for others heading toward them. (It's actually quite dangerous.) Only at the race's end are there truly any luminaries; however, the celebration upon the Marriott's fountained courtyards make up for that. Music, food, fire pits, and congratulations await. It's a party, really. Registration bibs provide free chicken tacos and hot chocolate (the deserts are cold in November) after your run. And what is even better is that registrants are offered discounted rooms at the resort, and heated pools and steaming jacuzzis are plentiful. You cannot beat having run 13.1, only to relax and unwind immediately upon completion without having to drive home afterwards. If the Illuminations Half becomes tradition, and I suppose it will be if my friends have anything to do with it, the Marriott--once again--will definitely be included in our trip.

The last Ironman Arizona or fondly known as IMAZ. Overall, it was a good race. If I compared it to…read moreIronman California (IMCA), there's no comparison, as IMCA will always be my first one finished and love. Unfortunately, this was the last year of IMAZ, as Tempe is redeveloping and IMAZ did not fit into the redevelopment plans. I truly enjoyed the visit to the Cities of Phoenix and Tempe. There's so much restaurants and things to do, which made this overall experience a good one. As for the race itself, if I didn't do IMCA one month prior, I really think I'd have enjoyed it more. Being fatigued did not play into my favor, which made my experience in this race not so good. Don't get me wrong, it is a good race, but I just didn't feel it, which may have disillusioned me. I do give IMAZ five stars, however.

A few important things to note: *Pick up your gear a few days before race day to ensure you're ready to go! *Make sure you provide an accurate (or as close as possible) time for appropriate corral placement. Being slower than the others in your corral may leave you in the way of others with faster paces. Please be considerate! *Be sure to check out all the vendors after the race!
