ST folks who WERE THERE.
Trying to figure out how tough it was out there since I've seen very few early reports or comments.
I raced the event in 2008 and it still ranks up as the hardest day of IM racing I ever completed. That day in '08 was 92 degrees with 70% humidity. I heard yesterday was a lot hotter and higher huidity.
So, if you were there and racing, can you tell me how bad it really was? Did you survive the day or did you DNF?
Was there a lot of carnage on the course with folks just cooked by the heat and humidity?
Thanks,
