This has been talked about in several threads now. Basically the region is saturated with Fall events now that Muskoka, Louisville and Chattanooga are all around the same time. The 4 events compete in part, for many of the same participants.
I think Muskoka was probably the biggest hit... as much as Louisville.
Plus you have IMLT and the ever popular IMAZ & IMFL also in the fall. Did I forget any?

This is just like Southern California. They put almost all event between the last weekend in August and the last of September. I literally have 2 Olympic races to choose from leading up to IMOO and I live in a climate that can have a race all year long. It's dumb.
I would kill for Superfrog to move to July.

Ohh I forgot ITU worlds.
IMWI might have a weaker 30-45 field next year for those looking to KQ. A lot of fast guys went to 70.3 worlds this year and made it a little weaker than in years past.

I disagree, at least for 30-34. In 30-34 the 4th place qualifying time was the same as almost every year for the past decade (right around 9:45). With that said, I can't remember ever seeing 8 guys in 30-34 going sub-10. Which happened this year.

It was also very fast course this year. It was deep field "on the bubble", but lacked the top end guys up front. I had a great day, but 9:37 in thaf weather should not have been the 4th amateur. That should take a 9:25 or better.

I have been to that race for 6 straight years I have seen the usual fast contenders, etc, Fast conditions yes, but the same fast people showed up, some got faster, etc, a couple of potential overall/past AG winners also dropped out during the race.
