Here is what athletes say about our volunteers:

“I just wanted to send my personal appreciation for putting such a great race in Michigan! The race was well managed, with plenty of volunteers throughout the course.”

“I did your race last year and had such a blast that I had to come back again. I have been racing triathlons for over 25 years and have been fortunate to race all over the world including a few Ironman and I cannot think of a race that I have enjoyed more. There are so many aid stations and your volunteers are second to none.”

“First, I wish to thank you and all your workers and volunteers for an excellently run race. I have been doing this tri thing for over 6 years and have learned to appreciate a well-run race.”
