There have been requests for updates on the thread that was posted by Fleck in September and titled New Half Iron Triathlon in Niagara Falls.
http://forum.slowtwitch.com/..._Sept._2014_P4771473
I have decided to follow-up on those requested updates on this new thread, partly so there was no confusion about the name of the race. It is the Niagara Falls Barrelman Half and is a 2K Swim, 90K Bike and 21.1K Run
First off, thanks to Tommy Ferris of Ignition Fitness for this video which tells you all about the race courses and the weekend of fun available for friends and family.

Here are the updates you might be interested in:
- Two of the top young guns in triathlon, Cody Beals and Lionel Sanders, will be joining us at Barrelman
- We have taken Alex VanderLinden’s suggestion of someone putting together a relay team to take down Lionel and Cody and turned it into a fun challenge. We will be posting the rules on our website, but any team that can beat those two will be given back their entry fee.
- Registration is near the 500 mark with a 1,000 cap in the first year. The reasons for the cap have been posted in the other thread.
- There is $5,000 in prize money that will be awarded to the Top 5 males and females, whether pro or age group athlete
- YES, there will be a beer garden at the expo on both Saturday and during the race on Sunday. It will be located in Kingsbridge Park beside T2 and the finish chute.
- Barrelman is a qualifier for the ITU Long Course Championships.
