As I prepare to go back to St. George for the 70.3 next month I am thinking back to when I did the full the first year (I believe that was 2010). It seems the bike course is very different but I am not sure how that could be the case. Does anyone have the map of the full course that first year of the event? Thanks in advance.

No map.
But look it up yourself on google maps.
In 2010 the climb lead up to route 18 at Veyo (Gunkock Drive).
The new course climbs up to route earlier 18 through Snow Canyon.
The course actually feels pretty similar.
The 2010 climb had a longer build up.
And you had to do it twice.
The current climb is shorter but of similar difficulty.

I look at Garmin Connect for things like this.
Was it a 3 loop cycle course?

Do an activity search on Strava....I did it 2X's; it was a 2 loop course...not easy at all.

I did that race the last year in 2012, that bike course was hard and it was blowing 20-30mph that day.

2010 and 2011; great course. Too bad it was too scary for people...
