All good advice. On your first HIM don't set a finish time just race comfortably. One key is pre race nutrition. You will need to experiment with foods that you can tolerate and will not cause cramps. During the race I like the Hammer Perpetuem and any kind of gels. I'll also take peanut butter sandwiches and a banana on the bike leg. Have fun.
