  • Comments: Never done an Ironman branded race before. They did a really good job. I just wish I would have actually got some food but I was too lost mentally to eat at that point.

  • Overall course based on my ability: Too hard

  • Comments: Hard for me to accurately rate this race. First HIM so don't have any others to compare against. Compared to other tris, they do a very good job. But the split transition I'm not crazy about. The volunteers were awesome, every single one of them. I was expecting more vendors in the village, but that didn't impact the event or weekend at all. Very good race - I'll be back next year because I made so many new friends and even got reconnected with an old one! Amy and Troy totally made the weekend even more memorable than it already was.

  • Comments: Would have like 1 more aid station for the bike. Not needed since I brought my own drinks but if it was warming, I think I'd be looking for drinks more often.

  • Comments: Overall, I'm very pleased with my performance. I've left plenty of room for a PR at my next half:) Really though, I'm excited and proud of my performance and I'm glad that I can recognize areas for improvement. I didn't place very well, but I beat almost all of my goals: 1. Finish a HIM - Success 2. Finish a HIM 16mph on the bike - Just missed 7. Average >18mph on the bike - No even close 8. Complete run in <2h30min - Success 9. Average <10min mile on run - Maybe next time :)
