Overall course based on my ability: Too easy

Comments: My goal going into the this race was to equal or better my half time from last summer. 5:59:xx but this course is much harder. I think I probably could have done that yesterday, but the bike was short. if the bike course was the correct length, I'm not sure I would have made it under 6 hours. I can't say I was too torn up not to be out there running. The run course looked hot with no shade from km 5 to 20.

Overall course based on my ability: Just right

Comments: The results showed that the bike course was only 86k. It was obvious when we were out there that it was short but overall it was a good race and i am happy with my effort. It was a fun bike course and a nice spot for a race. The volunteers were really excellent! It must have been just as difficult to be out in the sun all day helping us out. That said, I am not sure I would race the half distance again here just because of the time of year. The weather is just too hot to race comfortably.

Comments: Great weekend My goal for this race was 10min's faster from last year I crushed that, 20min's most of it on the run. Weather was good. My nutrition was good, 2 bottles GU, gels EFS one flaks, on the run 2gels Roctane, red bull and at the aid station. Before the race 5hr shot. Next year may have a banana around 7:00am got hungry on the run.

Overall course based on my ability: Just right

Comments: This was my first Half Ironman and the first goal was to finish! This was a B race, and I'm only half way through my training plan for a half ironman, so overall, I'm happy with my performance. Looking bcak, I feel that I could have pushed a little harder; but who knows, if I had, I may have blown up on the run and not finished. I should be able to improve my race for the Canadian Half Ironman in Ottawa on 1 Sep 07; the course is completely flat and I will have a better idea of what it takes... maybe I'll even break 6 hrs!
