  • Comments: The "rating" is for the race organization, not my own performance. Really couldn't fault this race organization-wise on anything, and I am a pretty tough customer. The swim was very well-managed despite the large field, and I never felt seriously crowded on it. Bike course was well-marked (though very hard); lots of volunteers and cheering locals along the entire course, aid stations very well-stocked and smoothly run. Really a great integration of town and race.Mom enjoyed spectating and going to the expo. I just felt like I wasn't really ready for the difficulty of this bike course!

  • Comments: This inaugural Half Iron distance of one of Ironman's favorite venues did not disappoint and allowed many of us who won't do a full IM to have an Ironman experience in Coeur d'Alene. The city's volunteers are the best on the IM circuit. I know...I've been a volunteer for years at Cd'A Ironman. Now I am an athlete!

  • Comments: Great race venue, lots of volunteers, and lots of locals turning out to cheer us on. Sadly, although this would be a great first race, it was still beyond my abilities at this time as I finished 6:32 after the 8:30:00 cutoff, so it counts as a DNF. They still gave me a medal and finisher's had when I crossed the finish line. So, I'll have to try again next year!
