Karen tamson hits half distance winner in naples.
Hits marble falls bike course.
This was a half iron distance triathlon which is the same as the ironman texas 70 3 triathlon that i did back on april 1st.
Hits puts on a good race a little.
Just after crossing the river at only 0 51 miles in i encountered the first and most significant hill on the whole route.
Some of the bike course routing was confusing too.
Pre race swim t1.
At the bike turn around i was expecting a turn around to come but didn t know if it was here or in 2 3 more miles and the one guy at the turn around with one cone wasn t making any signals to the riders to indicate this was the turn around or where to make our turns.
A 1 01 mile long category 5 climb.
Run the best word to describe how i felt when starti.
So it was essentially the same basic type of race with the same distances.
They remind us all why we love to swim bike and run.
After leaving the transition area at lakeside park the bike course passed over the colorado river the one dammed up to make lake marble falls.
Also had slots cut in your box to accommodate bike wheels instead of the standard racks.

Hits is filling a void with both timing and its.
They provided a little stool to i didn t use it for anything.
Hits for all the little things that folks don t like the one thing they do well is set up a transition.
Labeled areas with stools and a box to store your gear.
But in many ways it was completely different.
And hits has made it fun again.
Now that is doing it right.
Drove the race course which helped a little to see the hills and terrain on the bike course but didn t matter for the run course because they changed the course at the last minute putting it on the same course as the bikes.
I participated in the hits marble falls triathlon back on april 29th.
Seemed like a waste of time to me.
