Definitely felt the effects of the humidity on the run. May have pushed too hard on the bike, felt hamstrings beginning to cramp around mile 2.

Event comments:

The change in the bike course, while not the fault of the organizers, really hurts this race. There are several high speed hairpin turns where you could end up as a hood ornament on a parked car. The road was falling apart in several areas - especially on Spring Street and Depot Street. I did speak to the race director - they weren't happy about the needed changes either, but Town of Davidson did not want the race to run through downtown or across Griffin Street, hence this year's changes.
