  • Comments: This race is fun and only 1/2 in South Florida so they get a good crowd as ussual. Next year will be tougher with Ironman 70.3 coming to Miami during the same time. It was probably my 2nd and last time here. Only thing keeping me motivated to race here again is redemption:) It is a nicely run race with great volunteers though. Great 1st 1/2 to do IMHO if you live in Florida.

  • Comments: Overall, I was soooo impressed with the volunteers. I loved the aid stations - the jimmy buffett one was my fave... in the shade, with the island music playing on a radio. The race was very well organized! Everything was great! Loved the race!

  • Comments: I felt very confident with my training so I don't think there's anything else I could have done in terms of prep to perform better, aside from quitting my job and dedicating myself to training full-time. Ultimately I'm disappointed with my time since I fully expected to be in the 6 to 6:30 range. But for the crazy winds I think I would have hit my goal time. In the end I'm just happy to get this experience under my belt so I can train better for next year. As it turns out I won first for the Clyde 225+ category. The problem is I weighed less than 225 on race day so I stole first from the guy who should have really won the AG. Like I said I split before even looking at my time or waiting for the awards, so I didn't find out until much later that night. My buddy who won Clyde 200+ (where I should have competed) stayed for the ceremony and grabbed the award when they called my name. I've emailed the RD asking to be DQd and for the actual winner's contact info so I can send him his
