Subject: RE: Ironman Ohio 70.3 - FeedbackI did this one - it was my first HIM. Here's my race report. I liked the race and would consider doing it again. The swim was nice, the bike was mostly flat (a few hills in the last 10 miles or so) but we had some headwinds - probably left from the storm that came through the day before, and the run was hilly but partly shaded. We got lucky with the weather though - the storm brought in cooler temps so it wasn't too hot, even on the run. I think the issue with next year is the date - this year it was the same weekend as move-in for Ohio Wesleyan University, which is where the T2/finish line was and I think they're hoping to avoid that for next year. They apparently talked about moving it to July but I guess they haven't settled on a date yet. Janet |
