  • Comments: Gosh I hate to rate the race as average since I felt I had a good time in both sense of the word, but, yes, there needed to be a bottle exchange in the south loop. I ran out of water there. Also the run portion had the 1/4 gravel road that was very difficult on my ankles, and I have BIG STRONG ankles!

  • Comments: Beautiful course, and well organized. I would do this one again. I have to admit to being a bit spoiled by doing an MDOT race first though. You do get a lot more in the way of aid, support, goodies, and rockstar ambiance with those hefty race fees. :)

  • Comments: I realy enjoyed this race and would do it again.I could see the major difference between a closed course race versus the not closed course we still had to deal with traffic and hostel residents at least verbaly hostel with the closed course you had no cars and trucks to deal with and you got hordes of happy people on the side lines cheering for you.

  • Comments: Despite some setbacks, this was almost a 20min PR over my HIM last year. And I finished with lots of gas in the tank (good heading into IM!) and zero sore muscles the next day. 8 weeks to go!!!
