I'm in!  As is my husband.  It will be his first, and my second (assuming B2B goes well this year).

Oh my goodness, I'm in! I really never expected to manage to get registered. This will be my first one.

What have I done?

I couldn't be more excited.

Its all stream of thought right now...

I'm in.  This will be my first ironman/iron distance/140.6/whatever you want to call it.

I've done a half - this will obviously be a big challenge.

Does anyone know the actual bike elevation gain and elevation change?  I've seen different numbers in different places.

I had 3253 feet for one loop, but I also had 59.8 miles so we did a little extra. It gave me great confidence for my two HIM's this year but its going to be a long winter on the trainer. And regarding the date, I didn't even look when I signed up. Too excited waiting in line to drop $650. Does WTC spike the cool-aid or what?

I'm in!

IMLP2k13 will be my second, my first was IMFL 2k10.  I'm nervous for this one, as I have far less free time to train compared to last time, and will have to be much more focused.

I definitely had the "WTF did I just do" feeling when I hit submit.

After completely wigging out over it and trying to turn and run i ended up volunteering and registering too. I have a feeling the OMG feeling will stay a while. lol After I signed up THREE different people asked me if I was ok - apparently I 'looked as white as a ghost'. Now im off to sit in a corner and rock for a bit.

It's 6:30pm EST now, and the race is filled.  I'm wondering the same thing.  Why did it stay open so long this year?

On a whim I looked at the website - was shocked to see it still open - called my brother and we are both in for what will be our first Iron distance (we have planned to do B2B next October as we figured we had no shot at making IMLP 2013) ... stoked and frightened at the same time ... 

Some much more structured training will be on order for this year and definitely need to plan my March-June race schedule accordingly ...

Anyone have a link to the registration page?

 

Google is failing me... and the ironman.com website is confusing.

This will be my second time around, after finishing in 2010.  I can't wait to go back, it was a great experience.  The race, the town, everything.

 

My guess is that IMNY/NJ and Mont Tremblant are pulling people away from LP as there are now three IMs close in both proximity and distance in the Northeast.  Still sold out, though.

I'm not in for 2013 but I just completed it yesterday (which was my first). You guys won't be disappointed it is a great race. Good luck with the training, and enjoy the ride.

I'm in!! Pushed my lunch break off until I signed up! 7th Iron Distance race and I still got the what the heck did I just get myself into feeling my entire lunch run.

One of the reasons it didn't sell out as fast is they have expanded the field size to over 2500 and thanks to the additions of IM NYC and IM Mt T. in August there are more races for the folks in the NorthEast to chose from, so the race took longer to fill up. Fine by me. Lake Placid meant alot to me as a kid from Mass. in 1980, and to come back and race there with the history will be super cool.

So anyone have any secrets on how to find a house that isn't $4000 a week?

My son is finishing culinary arts school that spring, and we will be having a heck of a BBQ!

Google "ADK by owner".  There is a section for buyers and renters.  We rented a gorgeous house on the Ausable river last week for $2400.  It was only 8 miles away in Wilmington.  Houses start selling out by late December though, so start looking now.
