The half distance includes a 1.2 mile swim in the Monongahela River, a rolling 56 mile bike ride, and a 13.1 mile run on a flat and fast course along the Mon River.

New Course - out and back on the bike trail. Very Flat - some shade - aid stations ever mile or so - crushed gravel most of the way. Nice run along the river. Ran this as part of a triathlon.

I did this after swimming and biking as part of a half-iron distance triathlon. It was a hot day and after the run I ended up in the medical tent. I was probable in trouble from dehydration before the start of the run. It was not my smartest race or best management of my body in the heat. It was a well organized race with good medical support.

My wife and I completed in the half ironman as a team. She swam and biked as all I had to do was run. She was training for an Ironman so it fit in well with the schedule. The half marathon consisted of two loops with one serious climb, highlighted by a person wearing a devil's outfit. It was fitting because the temps were in the 80’s. My wife and I enjoyed the day. HFPRacing runs the event and they make sure that every finisher is treated right. Our total time for the half was 5:44:58 - good enough for 3rd place coed team.
