  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: Volunteers were awesome! 2 aid stations per lap on bike - I think this was enough. 6 aid stations on run (double sided), so approximately every 2km. This was enough too. Road on the bike course was terrible! So many potholes and uneven parts. This made it very dangerous considering the hills. This is the only reason this race isn't a 5.

  • Comments: Overall I PR'd at this distance, by 4 minutes. But my previous PR was at IM 70.3 florida and this course was a lot harder so Im happy with that.

  • Comments: What a race. Weather was bad but volunteers were awesome, the muscles were/are sore but the diehard spectators were inspirational,the course was challengeing but honest and fair. I had an absolute ball, my first HIM (70.3) done and dusted, sub 5hrs, 30th in my AG, 101 overall, direct qualification for IMOZ on 1/4/07 (definitely no April fools about it) and I'm pretty sure there would have been a roll down spot for 70.3 Worlds in Florida but I didn't stick around (I will confrim this - but I couldn't have accepted it anyway edit - yep I got a spot for Florida). Let the journey begin, I am just on cloud nine. All my expections of the whole experience have been exceeded big time and I can't wait to go and do this distance again .... then double it :)
