  • Comments: It was a great race! They definitely made us ALL feel very special, and it was like no other race I have done before. I wish the drafting on the bike wasn't such a big part of this race, but that should all change with the race being moved to Vegas. I have trained hard for this race and all the hard work definitely paid off. I have been working with coach Jorge (JorgeM) from PBM Coaching for 4 months now and I know this is just the beginning. Next year will be a fun one!!! Buckle up! :)

  • Comments: With the recent hits to their image, I think WTC really set out to shine at this event and it showed. It was a first-class event from start to finish. The hosted dinners were great (albeit pretty far away from the Athletes' Village) and the overall organization was very professional. The only negative I can think of was the bike course and obvious packs of drafting riders. I only saw one motorcycle official "officiate" and he just yelled at a pack that was passing me to "loosen it up."

  • Comments: The Clearwater experience overall was pretty cool. Felt really special to be there and they really go all out and make it more like an ironman. The pre race dinner was one of the best I've had and when you check your bike in, you have a personal escort that takes you to your rack with your name on it! pretty cool. felt super special for that!

  • Comments: The race was one of the best run races I've ever been to. The volunteer support was amazing and the event organization was great. Post race food was ok but no beer so we headed down to one of the local restaurants and took care of that :) My goal for this race was sub 4:30 and was really hoping for 4:22-4:25 range so when I saw 4:18:00 I was thrilled and couldn't have asked for a better race. Was very glad to have my wonderful wife and family there cheering me on and supporting me through the years of training that have led up to this race. Hope to make it out to Vegas in the upcoming years, although I think I'll let them work out any kinks this coming year and try to race it the following.
