TESTIMONIALS


The Vermont Sun triathlons are exceptional in every way. They offer a safe, well-organized opportunity for triathletes of all abilities to compete in a breath-taking setting in central Vermont. I have been competing in this series for the last seven years, and I build my racing season around these events because of the strong organization behind them, the experienced staff, and the triathlete-friendly atmosphere. The venue at Lake Dunmore is ideal, with a clean, clear lake, and challenging, yet beautiful bike and run courses. The value for the entry fee is outstanding. I have competed in an estimated 75 triathlons since 1997, from local events to world championships in Cancun and Madeira, but the Vermont Sun races remain my favorites.  With the exploding interest in triathlon nationwide, I believe that the Half Vermont Journey now being planned by Vermont Sun will quickly become the premier event of its kind in the Northeast.

First of all, I would like to thank you for having the Vermont Sun Triathlon race series.  My first race was in 1994 and I have done at least one Vermont Sun race each year ever since.  I consider the venue for the races (Branbury State Park) to be the finest in the state.  The swim course is never very cold or rough.  The bike and run courses are both relatively flat and very scenic.  The race organizers do an excellent job of marking the course and controlling the dangerous intersections so every participant has a safe and enjoyable race.  Also, the awards ceremony occurs promptly at the conclusion of the race and the results appear on the website in a very timely manner.  In conclusion, your races are done are very professionally done and very enjoyable.  I will continue to participate in Vermont Sun Triathlons for years to come.

Nestled against the Green Mountains, just below Rattlesnake is Branbury State Park on Lake Dunmore.  A most spectacular and pristine place to swim, bike and run.  The good folks from Vermont Sun have been hosting a series of triathlons there for many years of which I have participated in over 30 races.  I have had the good fortune to meet friendly triathletes from Canada to North Carolina and as far west as Colorado.  Over the years I have developed friendships and competitive rivalries.  I can’t express my gratitude enough to Vermont Sun for their efforts to put on a first class series year after year.  I am thrilled with their initiative to expand the scope of the series to include the Half Vermont Journey.  Count me in!!

The Vermont Sun Sports & Fitness Triathlon Series is a respected and popular triathlon event(s)!  Year after year, it draws people from around the Northeast region because of the staff organization and surrounding beauty of the Vermont mountains, etc.  I have raced in the series for four years and thoroughly enjoyed myself each time.  The series has established itself as a leader in tri-events and has tremendous potential to reach new heights with a few simple changes/additions.  I support the growth of this series and hope you will, too.   If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me directly!  Be well.

I come back every year to the Vermont Sun triathlon series because of the great competition, the fantastic organization, and because there's no more beautiful place to swim, bike, run, or relax before and after the race.  I look forward to seeing all my friends at the next race!
