Peter Groner's thoughts:

Best managed race around! due to the fact its a border crossing they enforce the corrals flawlessly.
The bridge is a climb but you are distracted by the views
The Tunnel is hot remove layers if you can while in the tunnel
Indian Village is a party Do shots drink beers get a bloody Mary and don't forget to run thru the wall
Belle Isle is the most boring part of the course and the windiest.

Do gear check with warm cloths or you will be running back to your hotel

Its a fabulous race one of few that i repeat
