Subject: RE: Rev3 Quassy Half : Official ThreadHello everyone I am doing this race as my 2nd Half Iron Distance. Looking forward to it. I hear the swim is in a shallow lake - so that is good, it means the water will be warmer than other places in New England - with this rain, lakes have not warmed up. Be thankful you are not doing Mooseman, I heard that the temp there was FFFFRREEZZING - like here, where the water is not yet 50! But it will be much warmer at Quassy, so that is good. The bike course is hilly. From what I hear it is rolling. Lots of short shots, a few long shots, but lots of descending too. The run is HILLY. Again, this is talking to folks who have done it, they say the run is kind of killer. I plan on getting there sometime Friday and getting a swim in. I haven't done an OWS yet this year (see above H20 temp) so I would like to get some time in. Will also scout out the course, hope to see some of you there. Mandy |
