The swim course is the best IM swim course I’ve seen- a big one-loop square that allows lots of room to spread out.
The bike is challenging, but the downhills outweigh the uphills and you can get serious speed.
The run is mostly shaded and has some hills, but the course is overall really nice and spectator friendly.
Don’t underestimate the altitude. I came from Texas and although I normally perform really well at even higher altitudes, I was forced to DNF at mile 101 on the bike because of respiratory issues. Listen to your body and be prepared for it to do unexpected things. This race is great and I’m mad my body didn’t cooperate, but I was having an awesome time before that point!
