  • Comments: This race was a lot of fun! The volunteers were SO NICE and helpful. At one aid station on the run course I called out for ice and they didn't have any. But someone actually ran to a different aid station across the street and got me a cup, and then chased me down about a quarter mile later. I had a great time.

  • Comments: If you're looking for a good bang for your buck, you can't go wrong with this event. My only criticism is there's no bike support on the course, or even back at transition. I know, I know - we're all responsible for our own gear. But we also all know that many events have support out there so we can finish. The volunteers are great, but the spectators are concentrated so heavily within the park, there's hardly any cheering on happening out on the bike or run except by volunteers at the aid stations (and they are great volunteers, by the way). I'll likely be back since it's only 2 hours from home and very affordable. Plus I have something to prove out on the bike course next time. And I'll be forever thankful for those anonymous spectators who helped me with my bike in T1 - whoever you are, I can't thank you enough!! I wouldn't have finished without you.

  • Comments: I was on pace for a sub 8 in my first HIM. My goal was 8:30 I finished 8:38 with a bum knee. I'll take it for my first half and come back next year faster and stronger. I now have a lot more respect for this distance and will work through the rest of this year and into next knowing what I need to do. The volunteers were awesome and they had plenty to eat and drink. My only complaint is that warm lemon lime HEED tastes terrible maybe a new flavor :)
