  • Comments: i'm local to miami area, and the attitude around most of miami is that people will pay to do stuff here just because it is miami. even some races have this attitude...yo can tell by the crappy food afterwards, lack of liquid/food during, minimal photographers taking crappy photos, etc. THIS race is NOT like that. the emails communication was GREAT! the volunteers well informed! bike aid stations fantastic last minute hand offs! a cop and volunteer at every road intersection. water stations on the run were unbeatable as well. the course is AWESOME. the time of year is perfect. this race is a MUST MUST MUST!!!

  • Comments: A really well organised race and thoroughly enjoyable for my first HIM. Couldn't fault the pre-race organisation on the Saturday - packet pickup, body marking was great as were all the freebies and race programme. The pre-race clinic was interesting but didn't contain any information pertinent to the course itself. Confirmed what I had read here on BT and elsewhere about nutrition. Race day - two minor gripes : not enough lighting around the porta-potties as mentioned and I would have preferred not as much rough trail running. But overall this is a great race (have heard about the tacks on the course but didn't see any evidence - trust the police will investigate and do something if only public naming and shaming as the Scottish police did when the same thing happened during the Etape Caledonia in 2009). The volunteers were just fantastic around the course (loads of them on the bike course along with South Miami's finest). Sorry again to the bike aid station girl and anyone

  • Comments: It was a very well run race and a great race overall. The weather was perfect. Water temp was great. Just a perfect day to suffer :) I will definitely do it again but just not next year. I have IMFL the preceding weekend so it will probably take a week just to walk again :)
