Hello,
I just registered for this race last night and could use any pointers that I could get since I have never done an ironman before. I also was wondering if anyone had done the course what it was like. Any advice, tips, tricks, whatever would be greatly appreciated and put to much use!

Read every single IMKY 08 race report that is posted over the next few days.  Every single one of them!  The weather and conditions on Sunday were on the worst case side of the scale and you will find some good stuff on training and troubleshooting this course.

Good luck!

Prepare for the heat and humidty.  I'll post my race report in the next couple of days, but read all of them. The heat got me and let's just say my marathon time was almost an hour longer than my bike time.
