  • Comments: There were no bike marshalls, although the Fairfield county Sheriffs were AWESOME. I saw a bit of drafting going on as well. Also no bike aid stations for the INT bikers. Would have liked a bottle drop. Transition/finish area had no water fountains or really anywhere to fill water bottles up...not good. Also, the website directions took you nowhere near where you wanted to be, and we got lost (as did several others). Would have thought there would have been more aid stations on the run, considering the heat. If it was a cooler day, what they had would have been fine, but on a 95 degree day, spreading them out over the 10k would have helped.

  • Comments: I like HFP a bunch. They're organized, on-time, cheerful, and most important, CHEAP! The only problem with this race is that the snooty Buckeye lake residents didn't come out and volunteer. They had lots of cops, but almost no volunteers -- they didn't do bodymarking for want of volunteers, and the bodymarking is my favorite part! So, snooty Buckeye lakeside vacation residence owners, you suck.

  • Comments: Boy, was it hot. The swim seemed like it was uphill all the way... how does that work? Still, I fell stronger with every race and love seeing the same faces each time. Bob's mojo worked -- I left with hardware -- with a blue ribbon.
