My friend and I are looking at signing up for a 70.3 later this year. We live in Atlanta but we missed the boat for Augusta, so the closest ones seem to be Austin and Miami on Oct 26. Anyone around here done both? Which is the best course? The best all-around experience? Neither of us will be competitive, just looking to do the distance and have fun.
The courses both seem relatively "easy" -- based on the elevation profile for Austin it looks like I get twice the elevation gain on my rides on the Silver Comet Trail, and I thought that was flat. I haven't found elevation data on Miami, but I imagine it's about as flat as you can get.
Thoughts?
