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


• Post race activities? Good
• 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.

• Post race activities? Average
• 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.
