  • Overall course based on my ability: Too hard

  • Comments: This race was very organized and well put on. The support of the local community was great, from boy scout troop 84 dressed up like super heroes at their water station to the local police offering encouragement on their bullhorns. That being said Central Florida the third weekend in May is hot, hilly, sunny, humid, and not shady. Very challenging race, my wife had the temp at 95 degrees although I'm not sure if it was that hot. I didn't apply enough sunscreen and got badly burned around my tri-suit. The run was absolutely miserable for me but I feel like I accomplished something by finishing this race (even if my time was almost an hour slower than my 70.3 PR at Augusta),,,

  • Comments: This is good race. The water is murky, but I hear it's an extremely "clean" lake. The bike course is nice with only a few rough roads. It has some challenging hills, but nothing to bad. The run is a good set up. It does have some hills to contend with. The major challenge with this race is the time of year it is put on. The heat is what makes this such a challenging race.
