So I finish, Great experience, will probably do again some time, just as long as Im not sick like i am now, but finish just to be told they were out of finisher shirts. R U Fing kidding me????????
I loved this race! I did the 70.3 and there were volunteers at every corner, refreshments (fully stocked ) several times on the bike and approximately every 1.5 miles on the run. Swim was well marked (buoys you could see! ) and the bike and run course was marked at every turn (and most were manned ). The course was beautiful, a short beach to transition run, a beautiful bike course through the country and a neat run snaking through town (did anyone see the window paintings on the building at about mile 5; I loved the binoculars ). The finish was a bit chaotic and I couldn't find the food for a while and yes, I got a rain check on the finisher's shirt too. However, I overheard a Rev3 staff member at the finish who indicated that they had ordered plenty of shirts to cover all of the finishers (of course they know exactly how many they need! ) and they had either been misplaced or walked away. What a pity if someone stole them! The staffer was quite upset. However it made me feel much better about having to wait for my shirt.
I'm looking forward to next year!
