  • Organised?Yes
  • Events on time?Yes

  • Lots of volunteers to help?Yes
  • Plenty of drink stations?Yes

  • Post race activities? Below average
  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: The post-race activities are pretty lacking, as in, there aren't any besides grabbing some decent food and the awards ceremony. It would be nice to have a little bit of entertainment for family members who come for a long day of waiting, maybe a bounce house or something simple and cheap like that for kids. They did have space for kids to draw with chalk on the ground but that's all I saw. Something to make it more festive and family friendly. Having a young child, I tend to look for races that offer a little more for the family (at least for bigger races). I would also like to see it be a full 70.3. But this is a really great race and it will be a popular one. I will do it again, although not next year, as I'd like to do another full half-iron distance. But I will be back again, hopefully with no cramps! I need redemption :-)

  • Comments: I always feel setup does a good job. There were plenty of people out on the bike course. Next year i need to leave some time to get there on time with the traffic getting into the lake.

  • Comments: The Half event is new to this venue. In the past, they have hosted an International distance event and a Sprint. This inaugural half was very well done. I do think that they need to change the advertising for the race (fast and flat is not how I'd describe the bike course) and address the parking as much as they can with only one road in/out of the area. I love this venue and look forward to returning in the future!

  • Comments: Well run event. Plenty of volunteers to help and very friendly. With this being my first half IM I am somewhat pleased with my results. My goal was to finish in under 7:30:00 and I accomplished that.
