Expert  882    Marietta, GA |  Subject: South Carolina Half - any thoughts?I'm trying to pick a half-ironman for next fall in driving distance and the only two I can find is the South Carolina Half and Great Florida Challenge. I'm being advised against GFT, so I'm looking for some thoughts on the SC Half. Has anyone done it or know anyone who has? I can't seem to find any reviews anywhere. |

Expert 831 Raleigh, NC | Subject: RE: South Carolina Half - any thoughts? Is Durham, NC too far to drive? The Duke Liver Half Ironman is a great event. I have been a spectator, not a competitior. I think it's Sep. 10th in 2006. |

I have however raced the Festival of Flowers Oly in Greenwood that uses the same route. It is a great race and very well organized. I have heard nothing but raves about the Half. Sabrina |

Expert 882 Marietta, GA | Subject: RE: South Carolina Half - any thoughts? Assuming I don't crash at St A's - I'm planning on doing the Festival of Flowers Oly in June. It's on the same course as the Half, which should give me a good idea of what I'm in for. BTW - I have heard several positive comments about the course now. |

The Original 7834 Raleigh/Durham | Subject: RE: South Carolina Half - any thoughts? I've offically decided today to do Festival of FLowers!! I'm excited because I've been trying to find an olympic to do wihtin the next 2 months that doesn't require a lot of traveling. I was originally going to do a local sprint next month, but I can't justify paying the same amount to race a sprint when I could do an olympic for the same price. I'd rather do a longer race. And...since I'm doing the SC 1/2, Festival of Flowers would be good preparation. I hope we get a good BT turn out at this race. Anyone else interested? I looked at last year's results (I shouldn't have done that), and they seem really fast- gulp. |
