If you qualify in Madison, WI are you required to complete Kona a month, later or can you wait until the following year? Thanks guys!

IMWI is the first qualifier for the next year's Kona. So if you KQ'd last weekend, you'd be doing Kona 2014, not this Oct. (Which is another reason people love it because they get a whole year to prepare.)

Right, the cut-off for a qualifying year is *usually* the start of September, so IMWI this year is for Kona next year. But something like IMKY is for the same year as it's raced in late August. You don't get to choose which year to do Kona.

I was in the moment, living a dream and on top of the whole world! Honestly, I wish everyone could experience that feeling because it truly cannot be described.

At one of my last swim sessions the week of my first Ironman, one of my training partners told me how she was envious..."your first Ironman is fun, you have no pressure and no expectations!"

I can't say it enough, the feeling of treading water for that final minute, helicopters over head, Mike Riley's Iron-voice over the P.A. - just awesome. I cannot believe I'm here!

Well the day is finally here. I don't believe a single workout has gone by in these past 9 years where the idea of being at the start line of the Ironman Hawaii didn't creep into my head.
