Veteran  333   Murrieta Calif. |  Subject: Ironman Coeur d'Alene : Official ThreadWho's in? I had to drop out and my training partner DNF'd so we are coming back to claim what's ours! I am terrified of the hills and from what I heard, with good reason. I will train harder than any year or race before! Anyone else gonna join us? |

Veteran 283 Va Beach | Subject: RE: Ironman Coeur d'Alene : Official Thread I'm in, just signed up today. I was in Spokane for work so I rented a car and drove to CDA. Ran 1 loop on the run and swam for 30 min. It was over 100 degrees so the run was a little slow, hills not too bad on the run, hopefully I can ride the bike course sometime before the race. Living in VA, I don't get out to CDA too often. I made reservations at the HI express, anyone know if parking on race morning is doable, I'm traveling solo for this race. |

Regular 304 | Subject: RE: Ironman Coeur d'Alene : Official Thread I'm from VA too -- though further north in Alexandria -- and traveling solo. I have a reservation at the Hampton Inn. The hotel people tell me it is a 10-15 minute walk to the park/transition area. Can any of the locals confirm this distance? |

I would think longer, probably more like 30 minutes walking. |

You are about 1.7 miles from transition, I did a dry run from the Holiday Inn Exp and it was a 35 min walk a long the centennial trail. I will have a rental car so either driving race morning or if the HI does a shuttle like this year I'll use that. Getting ready for IM Choo in Sep, crazy already planning for 2015! |

Veteran 513 Coeur d'Alene, Idaho | Subject: RE: Ironman Coeur d'Alene : Official Thread I'm leaning towards it, but haven't pulled the trigger yet. I did it in 2013 - my first one and it was amazing! I've taken a break this summer... it's been nice to not have a training plan hanging over my head for a while - just a few sprints and half-marathons. Glad to see a 2015 thread is started, it helps to rebuild the fire!

Don't hold me to this but, I believe this year it didn't actually sell out. I know when I checked in late May there were regular slots available still. Not sure if this makes a difference either but, I know a lot of people that skipped this year that are doing it next year, myself included. |

I am leaning toward this race but have some things at work that need to defined before i know if i will have the time to train. thanks for the help. Pretty sure it sold out in the last three or four weeks in 2014. I think it sold out sometime in January in 2013. It used to sell out around September or October, but since they started IM Tahoe, a lot of the Southwest folks have opted for that. |

| 1 | Subject: RE: Ironman Coeur d'Alene : Official Thread I read on another site that it did indeed sell out last year--twice! It was reopened when the deferment policy left available slots. |

| 93 | Subject: RE: Ironman Coeur d'Alene : Official Thread ok, Thanks. I was think it will be a month or two until i find out my work assignment and that should leave planty of time to get in if everything works out like i hope. sounds like if i know before the new year, then i have a good shot of getting in. |

Member 326 | Subject: RE: Ironman Coeur d'Alene : Official Thread I signed up for this race. I am travelling solo from Winnipeg, Manitoba. I am signed up for IM Muskoka and Couer d'Alene in 2015. They will be IMs number 4 and 5 for me. I have done Wisconsin, Whistler, and Lake Tahoe previously. Being from the prairies I like my mountainous Ironmans. |

Expert 1115 Spokane, WA | Subject: RE: Ironman Coeur d'Alene : Official Thread I know it's early but, 2 years ago a group of us locals did a driving tour of the bike course with out of towners, I would be up for doing that again for anyone that would like a guided tour. |

Regular 304 | Subject: RE: Ironman Coeur d'Alene : Official Thread That is extremely generous. I for one would be willing to buy a post-race refreshment for my pre-race tour guide! |

Veteran 320 Edmonton, AB | Subject: RE: Ironman Coeur d'Alene : Official Thread I'm in! This will be #9 on my journey to 12 to get into Kona through the Legacy Lottery. I did this back in '12 and was a little surprised by a couple of the hills but will be ready for them this time! |

Great to see the thread up and going already! I won't be racing this year (or any year for that matter anymore, due to a balky knee) but will be lurking around and willing to help out of towners. The bike course tour is always a good time and I'll be in for 2015 again for sure. And as always, there will be some *ahem*, special beverages, in the medical tent for any of my BT friends who want them after the race. Safe training to all! |
