Ironman 70.3 Cancun : Official Thread

Kathy,

Sorry I missed your post and didn't answer before. 

I schedule one race of each distance for this year. Already did a sprint, yesterday completed St. Anthony's (Olympic)  and I'm registered for IMFL in November.

I needed an HIM somewhere around September and last year I did Augusta, GA which is only a 2hr drive for me. But I wanted to do something different and CUN's race course is similar to Panama City. Ocean open water with a run on the beach in the middle, flat bike and run. I know is going to be hot as hell, but summer here is no different. I am not going for vacation or anything, it's going to be strictly a training race and it fits the calendar. Hopefully I won't find it so boring and ugly, I am already committed!

Thanks for your input and good luck at FUGA!

Buena suerte, dale duro y disfrutala! 

Awesome Brother, this is the best news this far in the year, I hope to see you there, I'm working my way to CUN, I'm getting serious on my training, trying to put some volume on it, so you don't have to wait to much on the finish line for me, lol.

I spent the spring break on Cozumel, I had the chance to do some ows and I'm telling you, It is fantastic, there's a lot of tropical fishes swimming all over the place.

So if the Navy doesn't allow me a few days off, I'll take them.

I'm pretty sure you did excellent in Florida.

Signed up again this year!! Since I will not be doing IMCOZ this year, this will be my A race. I will beat the heat!!!! I agree that it may not be the prettiest race in the world and it does not take full advantage of the surroundings, but it is a nice race and its a great challenge. Good luck with everyone's training.

P.S. Kathy, where do you live? I live in Puerto Aventuras.
