  • Comments: Marc already did this in his RR, so I can’t be the first, but a huge thanks to the Fred D group, and BryanCD from purgatory. A lot of knowledgeable, helpful people, who have given me countless bits of advice and support, for which I am very thankful. As soon as I finished I decided I’ve had enough of this race for a while. It really is a tough course and the run doesn’t seem to offer any real respite. I’m ready to try some different courses, and see how I perform. With that said, I just may be back at some point to try and chase that 5:15….

  • Comments: This race is amazing, there's a reason people travel across the world for it and I'm very lucky to be only a few hours away. Huntsville is a fabulous little town and its people welcome all of the athletes with open arms. Volunteers are fabulous - it's great to see so many kids out helping and getting enthusiastic about it. Hills are a little overkill, that's all. The entire race weekend is very well organized. Imagine I'll do it again after treating myself to some easier 70.3 races in the next few years :)

  • Comments: This is a tough race but an incredibly well organized race. The scenery is beautiful and there is a very laid back sense to it. I have to send out a special thanks and appreciation to Fred's mentor group. These are a bunch of knowledgeable and friendly people that are extremely supportive and provide tons of great racing and training info. There are several times during the race I thought of things Fred, Bryan and others have shared. Also, there are 3 or 4 lines of information I got from Bryan Dunn that directed my run pacing and training. This made my race. All through the very limited communication channel he has to share his wealth of knowledge
