Swim
Comments: The lake was super low, so there was a walk out in the mud. The lake starting rising in the morning so the sight bouys drifted off course... pretty tough to spot the small white course bouys through a field of irrelevant bright orange sight bouys. They reported 74 degrees... I think it could have been a tad warmer. Transition 1
Comments: Mud run, mainly carpeted, pools for feet cleaning. Bike
Transition 2
Run
Comments: A four loop course. Good for spectating and keeping an eye on competition (if you could remember who was in your race and what lap they were on). Perfect amount of aid stations. It got a little warm towards the end of the run, but nothing horrible. Post race
Warm down: medical tent Event comments: This is a really solid race. Better swag, equal support, and less attitude than the three past "official" 1/2 IM events I've done. Plus the price is a bargain compared to the official IM stuff... we look dopey enough for doing these things in the first place, to drop $700 just to sign up is just plain stupid.
