    Will be my first time at Quassy but after all the great comments on how much fun the bike was I just had to do it. I just like hilly races.

    This will be my 6th HIM, the 5 previous were done as 2-race-weekends, and this will be the same. Certainly there are better ways to have good race times but for me there is no better way to have a great weekend.

    I'm signed up for the OLY/HIM combo ... This will be the 3rd Quassy OLY in a row but the 1st time for the HIM.... Using the weekend as a big weekend training stepping stone on the way to IMLP.... Since I have a history on the OLY course and will be rested I plan to race the OLY all out on day 1 and seeing what I have left for the HIM on day 2...Thinking a successful HIM would be executed at around 80% right in between IM and HIM normal intensities and wrap up a great weekend of training.

    ^^you guys^^ are nuts. I admire you though. image after doing the HIM last year, I'm going back to the Oly. I've done the oly 3x so looking forward to seeing the improvement vs 2013!

    I'm in for the Oly. No long course stuff for me in 2015. I just want to have fun, do the best I can and hang out with the team!

    Doing the Half in 2015. This will be my 4th time at Quassy. As a bigger guy (6'3"), the hills kill me on the bike but I am down a few lbs so hoping this helps this year!

    In for Quassy 1/2 for the 3rd time. What can you say about Quassy...it's a hill, get over it!

    I will be doing Quassy for the second time. Last year was my first, just loved the course!
    Last year Quassy was my A race and I worked hard to do well. I ended up placing 4th in my AG, yay! This year it is a lead in for IMLP and although I'll still be aggressive, I won't have the taper to Boost my race day results. It will be a new ballgame for me. I'm so looking forward to some training rides and seeing fellow EN athletes again!

    I had to defer this year's Quassy Oly to 2016 due to a change in a teaching fellowship that I am a part of. I'll be leaving for 3 weeks in India on June 6th so I'll miss out on Team EN Quassy fun. Hope everyone has a fantastic race weekend!

    Greetings teammates! This will be my second HIM. Did 70.3 Syracuse last year (also hilly). Doing this as a lead in shakedown for IMLP.
