Anyone ever done this race?  Now that I have IMFL on my calendar, I'm trying to fit in a HIM somewhere in the season and this works pretty well timing wise.  Other option is new Rev3 in Maine but that may be harder to swing for a few reasons....  Any input would be very helpful!

    I raced FIRM Man in 2005 and it's still my PR race for the 1/2. The swim is in the bay, and there was a bit of wave action that you had to swim through. It was only an issue on the way into shore as I caught one last wave and got slammed into the beach. The bike was a mix of side roads and state highway, flat to rolling, with good road surface. The run was rolling as well as I recall, with the las 200 yds or so in deep sand on the beach. That was just mean! It was a well run race in '05. I'm thinking about doing it again next year.
