• Comments: This was harder than Ironman!! WOW. Brutal. I ended up 10/66 female, 42/239 overall..and it would appear only 170/239 people finished the race...which means there were 69 DNFs!!! That's like almost 1/3 :o

• Comments: If you are going to have one of the hardest HIM's around, you need to back it up with support and they did just that. The aid stations were great and well organized. I can't thank the volunteers enough who worked through the same tough conditions I just complained about. This is a perfect race for anyone who wants to have a good mental picture of what to compare future tough conditions against. I can say that I doubt I will see a tougher bike course or hotter conditions on the run any time soon during a HIM! This was the 26th year of the race and I have to imagine the reputation either hurts the race from growing any larger or these are the same sick people that come out every year:)
