“Really enjoyable race experience. I loved it. It is my favourite in Dubai. The only thing I would say is that the sprint swim course was a bit crowded and at the buoy turnaround a lane rope might have helped avoid crashes ? like the rope at roy nasr last year, but that is just a minor thing and still loved it, hectic swim but good practice and challenge for bigger starts ”

“Love the new location! Very well organized again by Super Sports. See you again in April!”

“Our family has done a few of the GRIT+TONIC Triathlons at Mamzar and we were a bit surprised with the new location, but we loved it. Race village is much better and so is the course. Think there were a few hiccups with the swim, but hopefully Warren and the team will take note and improve it for next time. Always well organized with a great support staff and awesome vibe as usual. See you at the Relays.”

“I liked the set up, it was well organised. ”

“COuld we have. more events for kids/junior”

“No enough toilets Swim race departure: Everyone at once... why not do waves? Let risky & stressful More Marshall for the bike, so many slow people in the middle of the road, dangerous to overtake,”

“The swim path was very crowded. Its normal to be hectic at first but it stayed hectic right to the end. The outer string of floats constrained the swimmers up against the line for the large buoys. Hence was very congested. Absolutely loved the ice-baths. Liked the tents that were available at the end, great to get some shade to recover and hang out.”

“1) This event have been done for years.. and yet it takes 25 minutes to access the toilets! 2) Why let everyone run to the sea at the same time. Put 10 people together and let them go by waves, every 7 seconds. It will be much better!”

“Very well organized, better than the last one. Well done!”

“Wanted it happen every 2months”

“Great course and organization. Just got confused with the last minute change in swimming course.”

“as always, the swimming part is the worst. People kicking each other, others swimming in oposite direction. Maybe having a wider labe would help.”

“The new course worked really well. Beautiful event as always!”

“Very well organised! The swim was a bit chaotic as the OD swimmers had to swim through all sprint swimmers and a lot of those were going in the wrong direction. Please start OD 15 min before sprint. Also again had something stolen from my transition gear :( ”

“very well organized as usual”

“It was a brilliant event in a fantastic setting, well organised, loved the swim, bike route and run route. The only area of improvement was on the swim and after u turn buoy as I swam back towards the finish I came across swimmers coming towards me, a bigger gap/channel between directions is required. Otherwise well done on a fantastic event. ”

“THE EVENT WAS SO AWESOME.”

“well organized! No improvements identified”

“Nicely organized, like the new transition, timings were nice.”

“This event was wayyy better than Las-Al Khaima. The ground staff was better equipped and aware of their roles and the races distances, routes and relative bib colors. Also the addition of 'kms' on the track is reassuring! ”

“It was nice and well organized. Just the giveaways and prizes could have been at least something. No prizes and a coke and a chocolate milk? Vs the Korfakkan Royal Oceanic is nothing. They gave full buffet breakfast with amazing quality and service. Also some other races give prizes to at least firs place. And a trophy.”

“I genuinely loved every moment of it. Fun, well organised, great energy and lovely people. Couldn’t have asked for anything more. ”

“Thrilled to share that I thoroughly enjoyed my first triathlon experience at this event!”

“Legend staff and epic location for an incredible event. Just make it draft legal and it will be properly topped off ;-) absolutely loved it and will be back for sure if I am able!”

“Really well run event at a great location. ”

“Parking was difficult and unorganized. Athlete village was small and cramped. T1 was too cramped. Bike rack was too low. Run route was chaotic. ”

“To make it a 10 add more toilets, please. Else it was a great event!”

“I loved this race - such a great atmostphere and it's a real family triathlon but also gives room for those who want to aim for a PB - something for everyone. It's the first time I've ever attended this event - looking forward to more!”

“Very well organised and great support team on and around the tracks. I really enjoyed the race. Thanks!”

“It was very well organised and marshalled. Plenty of drinks and food stations for the athletes. Great idea to have the cooling water showers- though even more would be amazing! Results and photos came through quick as well which was good to see! Well done to everyone! ”

“Very well organized and clear - could not have been better for my first triathlon ”

“We had a great time. ”

“Just was missing Isotonic drinks ..”

“Brilliant organization. Water stations every 1km on the run were super helpful ”

“Race was well organized, as usual. It's an easy one to attend. Good: - Olympic being 1 lap swim, and not mixing up with the sprint swimmer from the start. That was a serious improvement. Potential improvement: - the swim start was too crowded. 160+ people all out there at once was too much. While not everyone goes top 5, we all aspire to improve our times, and the first 300-400 meters were just chaos. See you at he next one!”

“You guys run out of water in the end!”

“great event, really enjoyed it. Well run as always.”

“Needed more toilets available .”

“The new one loop olympic swim was awesome! I said this last time as well: draw a mount/dismount line with a piece of chalk . That will be so much help for the athletes.”

“An excellent event, very well organised and good fun. Thanks!”

“Very well organized event.. good participation and energy throughout. Thank you ”

“Well done on an excellently arranged event. I wish there were more.”

“Well organised, safe, great atmosphere ”

“It was very well organised ”

“Nice course, well organised. Would recommend ”

“1. bike racks seemed very crowded for the olympic distance. 2. have 2 people at the water stations they can serve both sides. ”

“Amazing event, just too many people at the start of the swim entering the water.”

“More marshalls on the bike course, please! There were so many violations and no consequences. ”

“A shame that the cola and milkshake is limited to one per participants. ”

“The event was ran very well, I believe every triathlon event in the UAE should be ran by this company. KEEP THE ICE BATHS for the following events.”

“Lived the new set up”

“Great course well organized only comment would be the funnel for the swim at 1st left was very congested but otherwise was great ”

“Very well organised, great location. More athletes would have made it even better!”

“I know it had to be re-routed but I found 2 areas a bit muddling. One was the 5kms run at turn to do extra bit & the other was the entry after bike - went to wrong racking area. Otherwise - it was amazing!!! ”

“Enjoyed the race. Likes the swim course change. ”

“Well organised. Fabulous venue but no toilets. ”

“Very well organized. New location for ‘race village’ better than before - previously elongated, now everything is closer, creating a better vibe.”

“well organized, especially considering the short time between transition open and race starts. nice course, easy parking. only improvement to suggest is with photos as there is no way to search by bib number and you are forced to scroll through 200 pages of photos to look for your own, no way to go to last photo or first photo or even a specific page number.”

“Extremely well organised, great sponsors, fantastic course and awesome atmosphere. It was my first tri and I’ll definitely be doing more with grit and tonic.”

“During the running and cycling course there are many referees who do not know anything about the rules and the direction of the race and during the run the refere directed me to a wrong direction 2nd the pumps on the road is unsafe 3rd the kids during my race is everywhere on the cycling track it is unsafe because they drive on left side 4th the madels of the age groups winners is very sheap ”

“I did the super sprint; the signage for the running and the bike was poor. I ended up doing 2 bike laps; and not finding the run turn (sign was collapsed and covered by a cone. The new location is better, parking was easier. ”
