Niiiiiiccceee race Wahine!!!! Congrats on a great time. Although it's not a PR- who cares? You kicked butt on a really tough course!!!! Kudos to you!
I can only DREAM of a 5:30 half some day (and even in my dreams I'm not that fast). Heck, I'd love to break the 7 hour mark.

Nice work, Wahine! Way to kick up that run!!
It's fun that we can somewhat relate to the experience, even if we all feel so much slower.
I really wish this race was BEFORE my Ironman, now it sounds like a perfect setup. At least now I know a little more about the course... way to be the guinea pig

Colby - it's actually pretty well run, nice venue and good course. The pre race meeting goes over everything in detail (to the point of me wanted to leave because I was bored) but the logistics are not as bad as you might think. If fact, if you have a driver, it's really easy. I would do this race again.

I am so impressed. There are such variations in courses, it really is hard to compare one to the other. I should only be so brave to give so much that I would hurt for days. Way to go! I do believe you are redeemed.
