  • Comments: Ironman puts on a great race. The volunteers were absolutely great. There were plenty of aid stations on the bike and the run. My only criticism is the road conditions, which are simply terrible throughout the midwest. This race was really well run.

  • Comments: Really one of the best races I have done. It was significantly better in 2014 than it was in 2011. I will definitely come back and do this again. If you are looking for a great HIM, this definitely meets the bill.

  • Comments: Fantastic volunteers. They had almost more volunteers than racers! Great support. Overall happy to complete my first 70.3 but disappointed in my run. Trained to run 10-11minute miles and completely fell apart on the hills

  • Comments: Great event and very well run. Lots of enthusiastic volunteers and everyone was so awesome that I couldn't even be frustrated with the bike snafus. Beautiful rural course and we were really lucky that the weather cooperated. This was my first 70.3 and the common question is am I going to step up and do a full one. I have no doubt that I could do it if I dedicated myself to training for one, I just dont know if I'm ready for that part. Not only did I have to make a commitment for this race, my family had to contribute quite a bit of their time for this as well. Every athlete that competes in these has a support crew behind the scenes that makes it possible and I'm no different. For now I'm going to enjoy not missing the 4am alarm that is telling me to get up and get in the pool.

  • Comments: Great race - lots of spectator & volunteer support. I could do without the hideous 6 miles to and from the highway on the bike, but otherwise no complaints.

  • Comments: The volunteers were great! I love small local races too, but you just get so much energy and excitement at these larger races. The volunteers make an event within an event with music at aid stations, games, water hoses, etc and just keep you so motivated. I have not done a lot of Ironman branded races but the ones I have were all very good. Muncie puts on a great race.
