Anyone else doing the race this weekend?

Anyone have any insights from past experiences? It looks like the bike course is new.

It's going to be a hot and humid one.

Sorry I just saw this. hope it all went well. The course is changed due to construction, but the overall profile doesnt change dramatically (particularly the Olympic might have been flatter, if anything.

Sorry, I just saw this also... Doesn't matter too much as I think the swim (Oly) was set up too long last year and, as stated, the bike course was different.

How'd it go (little brag, I crushed it---for me anyway)?

That's a pretty good course. It went alright, except my dumb arse took a wrong turn and went abou an extra mile on the bike.

That sucks! I was worried about the same since the course was different from last year and I didn't pre-ride it this year.

Anyone know how the swim distance checked out for the Oly on their GPS device this year?  I think the consensus last year was that the course was a fair amount longer than it was supposed to be.

My guess is the swim was pretty close. Last year the fastest swims were 22 minutes this year they were around 20. I did not check my garmin but I would bet it was pretty accurate
