Lubbock is a place where you go to race but not to visit the locale. And surprisingly, it has a slightly hilly ride, considered one of the more difficult rides in the 70.3s, and a very hilly run, one of the slower runs in the distance. So although the surrounding terrain is awful, the race terrain presents challenges for most athletes.

The weather frequently presents a challenge.
