This is a great race that should be growing. The RD is super organized, they have cool awards, and the course is challenging but fair.

“I didn’t have a clue. I didn’t know how to swim, I would be dying after running a mile, I didn’t have any coordination or endurance; every time we trained, I was the last one.”
