Ras Al Khaimah Triathlon 2023
“Need age group prizes for super sprint!!”
“Setup was great and a fantastic first time experience ”
“The bay area for the swim was very nice. The roads were good for the run; however, it's a bit dangerous to have the cycling and running routes crossing each other. The cycling route is fairly windy, but that's just part of the course. ? The weather and overall setting were great. I hope to do this event again, preferably the Olympic or 1/2 Ironman next time!”
“My first Triathlon. Well organized event! Looking forward to the next one hosted by you guys. ”
“Great organizing. Lovely event and a lot of information available beforehand. The event photos were great and quickly received as well.”
“a nice event, well organised!”
“great ! as usual. Always a fantastic organisation and venue.”
“great ! as usual. Always a fantastic organisation and venue.”
“great ! as usual. Always a fantastic organisation and venue.”
“Brilliant event, super well organised. My main worry is the amount of non racers in the middle and the safety as the island is becoming increasingly populated. ”
“Having to run across the road with cyclists on was a bit dangerous and slowed runners down. Would be good to avoid this.”
“Try to prevent the runners going across the cyclists”
“Letting all the sprint and Olympic swimmers of in one heat, rather than the 3 that were written on the planner, was absolutely dangerous!!!!!!!! It was mayhem in the water. ”
“Thank uou very much! Fantastic ”
“Great event and well organized! Will be participating in more events!!!”
“Great event!! So well organized and wonderful race atmosphere. Will definitely do it again!”
“Wonderful triathlon! Enjoyed every bit of it. Good organization ”
“beautiful course, good organization, enjoyed it”
“Fab day out. Well organised and a beautiful course”
“very well organised. good job! a little comment (nice to have) is to partner with nearby hotels for race information to be provided at check-in. The RAK Triathlon logo/identity may also need some inspiration from the YAM event which was great. Many thanks and see you in Mamzar!”
“Great event, well organized. Will come back”
“Amazing event . Organised very well ”
“you should have started the Olympic race first ”
“I saw a few riders running in transit with their bikes and helmets in their hands. this is not safe. ”
“loved it. superb race and well organised”
“great event! Well done, happy to join again next year”
“nice family event. convenient location. Well organized.”
“Big issue was drafting. No one checked for that. I group of 4 passed me on the bike. 3 were from Abu Dhabi tri club that funny enough,they were the podium as overall winners in UAE category. They should have been disqualified. The other one was bid number 156 with mexican tri suit.Should have also been disqualified. Is not fair for the people that obey the rules. There were more examples,but these were the most obvious ones”
“Chaotic swim start with both Sprint and Olympic starting together. Bike and run were both a bit long. And you must get some bike check out security. Anybody could walk off with the bikes. Apart from that it is always nice to race on Marjan Island. Thank you for organising yet again!”
“The event was great, as always. However, it would be even better if you could do something with the kid's transition, as having them with adults from SS was not the best. ”
“Always such a great and well organised event. Thank you Super Sports.”
“Very well organized and very supportive staff. Thank you ”
“First experience ! and very good ! well organize ”
“Good course, great organization, as smooth as it can be ”
“Good overall but maybe a bit more clear organization would have been better. ”
“Every thing was well organized! I can not find anything that I would dislike. Thank you so much for such an event. ”
“Really good experience overall but transition area, esp for junior race could have been managed better. ”
“Thank you for the amazing race ”
“Awesome race, awesome day, as always. Thank you ”
“It was a great experience”
“Great event, well organised, loved the location.”
“10 out of 10 Well done!”
“It was my first triathlon - great experience, everything was clear or the officials were on hand to give advice. Only downside is the lack of photos on bike and swim element”
“Event was well organised. My only comment is that during the ceremony of receiving medals you can hardly hear the voice of Warren and it was a bit chaotic. ”
“Timing chip was completely wrong. During the run, i was stopped by staff to let cylists past which impacted on my times and pace. ”
“Good organization and nice spirit ”
“Logan did the sprint and I did the 76 Organisation was great but a few marshals need more training. On Sat cars were coming inside the cones. On Sun I noted close calls with bike mounting out of transition and riders on there second lap. I saw a rider in his blue swim cap too! I also felt sorry for the runners who turned left out of transition stopping for cars and bikes. The longer distances are great and we’ll definitely do again. The aid stations were excellent! Thanks ”
“Very well organized and supported. ”
“Amazing event. Such a great location, perfect for spectators too.”
“Please start the swimming in waves. ”
“Great event, superb marshals. My only comment would be about more specific seeding for the sprint/ Olympic swim start - or separating the start. Other than that, fantastic event! ”
“Very well-organized. Lovely venue, beautiful course. Hotel very nice. Lots of people directing on the course. Will recommend to friends.”
“Course distances were quite inaccurate. Swim part for Olympic and Sprint was not staggered and caused quite a lot of chaos. ”
“Great event, well organised as always. Good price with great goodies when you finish. ”
“Well organised. Nice course. The only downsides were that there weren’t enough bike bottles ordered and lots of people didn’t receive one at the end unfortunately and it would have been good to have gels offered before the last kilometer on the run. ”
“I came from UK to do this event as I used to live in Dubai and simply loved doing Rak triathlon more than any other in the UAE ”
“It was well organised and the course was good. Could have had a separate strat for sprint and Olymoix as the swim start was a bit difficult. Maybe more water station at the beginning of the run course.”
“Need more control on transition area ”
