  • Comments: This was a great race!! My only complaint was that the run aid stations were under-manned. They could have had fewer stations, but had more volunteers. A few times, I came to an aid station and they had no water or gatorade poured, or no ice out. No big deal because everything else was GREAT!

  • Comments: I really enjoyed this event and would recommend it to anyone. It's Kona after all! You're on that course! Wow...how much fun this was. Got to see Macca and Samantha, experience the lava fields, the winds... Just the additional motivation I needed to get a little more serious about training.

  • Comments: Great day of racing. My first HIM. I have doing a sub 5:45 HIM as a long term goal...I almost did that on my first try. I think I need to readjust. Long term goal........maybe sub 5:20. We'll make it a multi year project. Ammended w/ the official results: Okay, I was 63/87 in my ag on the swim. I was 44 of 87 on the run. And 19th fastest on the bike for my ag. I need to work on swimming and running!
