  • Comments: This is a good race. Set Up does a good job. The course is really tough, both the bike and run (HILLS)... it is a good challenge. The race was moved back two weeks later this year to try and avoid the heat. We only got heat on the run...but the rain in the early part was interesting. The volunteers at the aid stations during the run were awesome...they had a system worked out and I think everyone got what they wanted very quickly. I like this race. It's close to home, so I will probably do it again.

  • Comments: I enjoyed this race. Setup is a great company and I've enjoyed every race I've attended or raced. This course just didn't sync well with my first full year of training and I know I will do sub-6 at eagleman. I'm VERY happy and proud of myself for getting this done and really look forward to next year! One thing I did was wrote on my hands to keep moving. I never stopped moving. Ever. Drinking, walking, etc. Didn't stop moving.

  • Comments: Neat stuff at www.humanvelocity.com: Came out of the water in 25th place in my AG. Made up 7 (!) places in transition with no one passing me. Made up 14 places on the bike with no one passing me again. Made up another place in T2 to move me into fourth which I held over the run. That's neat.
