A 1/2 Ironman distance triathlon this race had a clear blue sky during the race which made for a somewhat hot day. The course change was brutal for some as the run portion took a grueling uphill to the turn-around, then already tired legs had to strain to brake the running speed coming off the hill. Some of the world-class triathletes walked the hill as it proved to be punishing.
