As you probably know, I am nearly done with the documentary on Tammy (tripletmom01), Josh (mutri) and Dave's (djdavey) epic journey to completing their first Ironman.

In a way, it has been as much a journey for me. Just as they trained for nearly a year, I followed their training and personal lives for that time. In the end, I would estimate that I put in perhaps over 500 hours into filming, organizing and editing their journey. And I can honestly say, I'm very happy and proud of the results. I hope you'll all agree it was worth the effort.

That said, it's time to let you all see it. I'm currently investigating different venues (perhaps a real movie theater) to debut the film. But I need to know how many of you-- including any friends and family you may want to bring-- would like to attend the premiere. I don't have a date yet, but I'm thinking either late January or February. But I need to have a rough idea of how many I can expect to select an appropriate venue.

Can you please respond if you are interested in attending and let me know how many you will bring? I know the selected date will influence whether you can attend, but again I'm just looking for a rough headcount. Thanks!

Maybe you could combine it with the get together many have talked about doing?

If it's on a Sat. day during the day, I wouldn't be able to make it with youth basketball.  BUT, if it was later or on a Sun. then I could and would coax my wife and 3 boys to come with me - total would be 5.

I can't wait to see it, Rich!

Why drive?  I thought you would at least bike or ski here?

I would be interested in seeing it as well.  Depending on the date time, I would probably just bring my husband (so 2).  If that wouldn't work, I'd bring the kids as well (4 total).

Hope you're having an awesome birthday!!

Come on Jim.  I'll swing by your place and we'll road trip down.  Seriously, It might be a fun road trip to come down for.  Don't count on me, but once you set a date, who knows?

I'd definitely like to see it. When it is will make a difference as to whether it'll be just me, me and the hubby or me, the hubby and 2 kids. But, considering that the one kid is 3 and can't sit through Scooby Doo, I doubt it would be more than 3 of us.

Where is Madison?

I think you'll be happy to learn it's going to be a little closer to you... perhaps the Majestic in Brookfield.

Will there be a DVD release to purchase for those of us who may not be able to attend.  I am checking with the War Department to see if she wants to go and if I can go!

Oh, yes. I am currently working on details for the DVD release. I will share those when I know a bit more.

May I suggest the Ipic at Bayshore as an option?
