Subject: RE: Deer Creek Fall Challenge Half Iron Triathlon : Official ThreadI've never known the DCFC Half to be only one loop. To my knowledge, since 2013, at least, it has been three loops that are basically the same as the Olympic course, but with an added out-and-back (with two extra hills) to bring each loop to roughly 18.6 miles long. It is generally a pretty fast & flat bike course, despite it having 12 small climbs (total). I'll be there this year, but not sure which distance I'm in for, yet. The original plan was to do the Half, but I have Savageman 120 the weekend before and am guiding a VI athlete for about half of the Akron Marathon the day before, so doing the Half might be a bit much.... although, I suppose it would be fun, lol |
