Sport Today

I remember last fall reading some postive posts about
the Great Floridian Ironman distance triathlon. Could
someone who did that race please let me know again
if my memory is correct? What is the usual daytime
temperature at that time of year? Still in the 90s?
Is the race well organized? Are there enough volunteers?

Thanks.

o Very well organized.  (aid stations every 8 on bike, every 1 mi on run)

o Very hilly on first 35 of bike and first 3 miles of run.  ('rolling'
hills my eye, Ferndale loop is grueling,
    and Sugerloaf is a good chance to remove the bananas from your
stomach)

o Warm last year (mile 90 on bike looked like battlefield with peoples
scattered on both sides of road)

o Great crowds (They cheered all night long, along the run course, and as
you come back into town
    on bike).

o All the glucose you could want at the end.
