		If you look around the country, you’ll notice that a number of iron distance races that are not associated with WTC, are surviving because they have added a half iron distance race.
		We currently produce two half iron distance races in North Carolina (one in the spring and one in the fall) that are associated with different charities.
		We will not add a half iron distance race to the Blue Devil that would undoubtedly have a negative effect on these other races, and neither of these other races have any interest in splitting their profits with another charity.
