  • Comments: I really like this race and will definitely do it again. It's a smaller race, which is good because I can be more competitive...but it's not great because they seemed to be a little short on volunteers, like the aid station on the bike course. 5:00:00 is definitely within reach! I can shave the most time off of my run. I need to be able to hold 8:00/mile for any chance at 5:00:00. Time to start speed training for 13.1.

  • Comments: It was a well organized race and DRC does a good job. For a HIM, I had hoped for more spectators but this is a small venue. DRC handled the weather and other issues well and made the right calls whether we liked them or not. I may do this race again one day but next year it will be too close to IMFL.

  • Comments: Was surprised I finished third in my group as it was a tough day due to the weather Overall great race but I doubt I will risk doing another on the atlantic coast due to the fact that the swim could get cancelled at any time of the year

  • Comments: The think DRC since a good job with the conditions they had to work with. I am happy they waited until most of the rain had passed to start the race. The only thing I wished they did differently was the time trial bike start. I was in the very last group to go; I'm not sure why. I wish they would have used the anticipated finish time they asked everyone to provide in order to rank the bike start. It would have been nice to have a better sense of where I stood in placement throughout the race. But, overall, good race!!!

  • Comments: Drc did a great job considering what they had to work with. The swim was impossible and it rained most of the night before and morning of the race. The TT start was much more organized than I thought it was going to be. The volunteers on course were amazing and really seemed happy to be out there.

  • Comments: I had a great time at this race. I used it as a warm up for IM Florida, having never done a half or full IM distance I wanted to double check just in case I have any last minutes tweaks I need to make. I think I'm ready, I'll be slow, it will be painful, but I think I'll make it. Anyone out there that is looking to do a half iron distance course that isn't looking for an IM branded race, do this one! I don't think you'll be disappointed.

  • Comments: Great venue for a race, great volunteers and course. The only problem was with the buoys. Maybe they should use bigger ones or use more.

  • Comments: This was a great race. The volunteers at the aid stations were the best I've ever encountered. Particularly the boy scouts at mile 6-7 of the run. I'll be back next year for sure. I've got a date with 6:00:00.

  • Comments: This race was super. Everything was well-organized and the location was just beautiful. There were zillions of aid stations - four hand-ups on the bike and seven stations (and you passed most of them twice) on the run. Fernandina Beach is a super beach and it would be great to rent a house to stay here for a week with the family. I definitely recommend this race to anyone and would love to come back next year.

  • Comments: This was a great race for the 1st time be put on. They hope to do the HIM again next fall and move the Olympic distance to the spring. Besides the one corner have no volunteer and the lack of aid stations (and lack of cold drinks or fruit) at the aid stations this was a very good race.

  • Comments: Dispite a mediocre performance I am pretty happy with my effort today. Unlike gulf coast I never contemplated quitting. I adapted to the situation and kept positive. Only negative comment was no fruit on the course. Oranges and bananas are nice.
