  • Comments: Again this race is on the IMFL course and many of same volunteers work both races. This race is one of the longest triathlons nationally. Very well organized, well run, plenty of safety people in water, and out on course, plenty of aid stations on bike and run- just overall a quality event and a great venue for a first HIM.

  • Comments: I would highly recommend this race to anyone doing or even considering IRONMAN Florida. It was a big help to me and know I will take what I learned about the course, nutrition and long distance racing and apply it in November at IMFL

  • Comments: Had a great race...a PR by 27 minutes! I was shooting for a 5:30:00 finish, and beat that by 17 minutes. I really surprised myself on the bike, especially...the hard work there has paid off.

  • Comments: Volunteers at this race are incredible. They make it what it is. I never had want for anything they didn't have ready to offer. Very nice. Had a great first Half Iron Man. My goal was 6 hours so I couldn't had been happier with my result. Looking forward to breaking 5:30 on the next one. Shouldn't be a problem with all that cushion I gave myself in transition! :-)

  • Comments: Great race. Well organized. Great price. Exactly why there should be more non-WTC branded races. Great staff and volunteers. I was in next to last wave to start and though I passed alot of people there was still plenty of aid station stock--would have liked salt tablets.

  • Comments: Truly was a good learning experience even though I performed below expectations. I enjoyed it but am in no big hurry to do a ocean swim again. IMFL 2010 is now a race to respect in advance due to the swim issues and the heat.

  • Comments: This was my first HIM, I survived! I was dissappointed in my overall time. I will spend more time on longer bike rides and longer runs during my training for my next HIM. I bought my bike last August for a ultra sprint and have completed 3 sprints and now HIM in 10 months and have lost 40 lbs in the process.

  • Comments: Overall I am happy I finished the race. All my time in the saddle was validated with a bike split I can be proud of. I need to just let the run be a big lesson and come back next year stronger and faster.

  • Comments: Any race would be a failure with out all of the volunteers. Thank you for supporting us. I am grateful and think you all were great! The beach was beautiful, the bike course was very good. The run course was decent. I would do this again fo' sho'. I am certainly proud of doing my 3rd Half IM in 12 month period (Fl Half May '08/ Miami-Man Nov '08 / GCT May'09) and I do this for fun and don't want to lose sight of a great accomplishment. Am I beating myself up for missing a time goal or being a little slow? A little bit. We spend a lot of time doing this sport, and we all want to do it well. I'll break 6 next time...

  • Comments: This is by far the best Triathlon I have done to date. They had great volunteers. It was extremely well organized. They had 5 aide stations on the bike. The pancake breakfast was great, the pasta dinner was great and the party after was awesome. The fact that the hotel is right by transition and swim start just cant be beat. Not having to wait in long lines at the porta potties is really cool.
