  • Comments: This was my first triathlon at any distance. As such, it was a wonderful and challenging experience. Many lessons were learned and will be applied in the future. I have nothing to compare against, but was very happy with the volunteers and the help they provided. I would most certainly do this race again.

  • Comments: I wanted a challenging race and I got it. This was a fantastic race. WTC always puts on an amazing race and they didn't disappoint. The post race food was good, although I hardly ate any of it. The whole race experience was amazing and would recommend this to anyone looking to challenge themselves at the 70.3 distance.

  • Overall course based on my ability:

  • Comments: I began to feel an overwhelming sense of accomplishment in the hours after this race. Tough course, tough conditions, wasn't quite fully prepared. However, I really feel like I gutted this race out, as I did a lot of my races this year. Sometimes it's not about the fast time, it's about the scenery and the experience. Next year I'm going to take on Ironman Florida, and I will try to be more focused on knocking my IM PR down by quite a bit. Silverman was an amazing venue, very challenging, but I would recommend it all day long. The swim venue is one of the most beautiful you will find, and the first 40 miles of the bike were just breath taking. Good race.
