I’m signed up for Steelhead this year and hoping to PR. It is my 4th 1/2 Iron race with Muncie being my PR. I’m much stronger on the bike than I was for Muncie but my run isn’t quite as strong as it was then. My hope is to PR each of the 3 disciplines and was hoping for a comparison of the courses. Normally I would think the swim would be a wash(no pun intended) unless Lake Michigan is rough. But given we are swimming with the current, I’m hoping about the same fitness will get me a PR.
So, for those that have done both, how do the bike and run courses compare at Steelhead and Muncie? Thanks.
