  • Comments: This was the most mentally grueling race I have been in, and I've completed one half-iron distance before, as well as several marathons. The course definitely demanded concentration and careful race execution, and the heat and my muscle cramps definitely instilled some doubt into my performance. I would do this race again (with different preparation) and will consider it for next year. The only chaotic part was getting my T1 bag--the process was to hand out at this fence and wait for a volunteer to get your bag--kinda analogous to standing at a bar waiting for a drink. Had to be sorta persistent to get someones attention. WTC could set up a much more orderly process to move people through quicker.
