  • Comments: The supporters for this race were absolutely amazing. There was a 1:1 ratio of volunteers to participants and you could really feel it. I never passed an aid station that wasnt packed with cheerful staff extremely organized and encouraging you the whole way.

  • Comments: Not sure that I completely agree with RD's decision to rush the start. There were still hundreds of people in the water when the storm hit and quite honestly I'm glad I wasn't one of them. I understand the decsion and respect it but still thought it was very risky.

  • Comments: I was real happy to have made Muncie my first HIM. 600 participants on a great course. Volunteers were out there in the bad weather and were all great! I thought they could've used more porta potties, and I really don't care for the swim time including a run up a hill, why not have near the beach (they were running it off of portable batteries). Whats the deal of having only one flavor of gel at the aid stations, a minimum of two would at least give someone a shot at finding something they may like. These are minor gripes that wouldn't keep me from going back. I hope to race Muncie again in the future.

  • Comments: the ONLY thing I can complain about is the port-o-lets. There was only ONE at each aid station. Not one each side of the road, just one, and less than 20 at the transition area for about 1000 people. They definitely need more, but otherwise, this was a great event!! Very well run.
