ATHLETE REVIEWS

“I just wanted to send a heartfelt thank-you for Saturday’s triathlon - it was absolutely amazing!

Your opening words really touched me and set the tone for the entire day. Thank you for taking the time to hold that space - it made the event feel so welcoming and meaningful, especially as I am from Texas and the flooding has hit very close to home  

From start to finish, everything was impeccably organized. The course was fantastic, the volunteers and spectators brought such amazing energy, and it was clear how much thought and care you put into every detail. It was my first triathlon and a joy!” B. Larkin, 2025 Finisher


I’ve lived on the island for five years and have always put off doing the ACK Tri because of the swim - but wow, what an incredible event. I’m officially done making excuses! Now I understand why so many people come back for it year after year. J. Kann, 2025 Finisher


“Thank you for hosting such a great event. Your organization was superb. The volunteers /staff were kind, friendly and helpful. The course was perfectly marked. Your pre race communication was fantastic. My last Tri was approximately 27 years ago. I couldn’t have asked for a better return. I’m a big National Anthem guy. Singing God Bless America brought tears to my eyes. Well done. - N. Levine. Mansfield, MA


“I just wanted to reach out to say THANK YOU to you and the entire event team. This was my 10th ACK Tri and I was so happy to be back out on the course. This weekend is always the highlight of my summer and how I fell in love with triathlons. Thank you for all that you do to keep bringing this race back each year.” M. Grip. Brighton, MA


“Thanks for an amazing, wonderful well-organized race.  I’m the director of a road race in Maryland, and I know how much work goes into something like this - and how the thanks come in a little thin.  This was a tremendous event all around'“ J. Nussbaum. Chevy Chase, MD


“This was my first trip to Nantucket and I planned my visit around your race. I wanted to let you know that you did an outstanding job executing the race. The race course was challenging & the scenery was amazing. Congrats to your team for a super safe & successful event! -  J. Reback. Jupiter, FL
