Fla / disney 1/2 2,459 particpiants?

Holy crud the disney 1/2 participant count is up to 2,459. If I remember correctly when the first posted the race they said the participants would be limited to 1,800 then they increased that to 2,000. But letting in another 459 is a bit much. I am sure complaining about it is going to get me no where, but anyone have any words of wisdom on racing in a huge crowd.

I have done Eagleman when it had 1,800 and I thought that race was crazy so I did not sign up for it again. Prolly should have.

I was hoping to try to get a spot to IM Fla or IM Wisc, crud now I just hope I finish the bike without getting into an accident.

Crowded race tips anyone???

Peace,
