Wow.  So do I do 2 in 2011?  I had already planned to do IMAZ in 2011.  Got to do IMTX the first year. 

I would wager that 2000 Texas triathletes will fill this thing up on Friday.

According to the website there will be 3 aid stations on the bike.  I think there needs tp be more.  Hope that is a misprint

WE only had 3 aid stations at IM AZ on the bike. Much will depend on how many loops the bike course will be.
Typically IM had aid stations every 12-15 miles on the bike course

Just got back from the meeting. It went perfect. Sounds like the bike course still has some details to work out but who cares! The date and heat were addressed, and the COO of Ironman responded by saying, "the heat will be similiar to kona but without the terrible headwinds". Later he responded, by saying , "this isn't a walk in the park, this is the Ironman". Loved it.

There were a couple of people I was wondering about (regarding the vote) but when you fill a room full of voters who are also Ironman finishers, it changes things a little, so everyone was on board. Roaring applause followed.

I'm super pumped. Hope you guys are having as much fun as me. And just like this rumor that I posted months ago, if I hear course details I will let you know.

On a side note, seriously bt, you gotta get a mobile site!

I wish! I'll shoot for 2012 so I have plenty of time to warm the wife up to not having a husband for 5 or 6 months. And that's the same weekend of one of her big horse shows. Just my luck.

AAH! Good to meet some Bter's. Oh that library presentation was great. It gave me the opportunity to release those 2 beers I drank earlier back into the wild.

Don't worry. This is IRONMAN. they will not skimp on aid stations, especially with a hospital as the title sponsor.

Training Starts Saturday!  Unless for some reason I can't get registered - I already have the time booked on my calendar for anoon meeting at my computer!  This is just what I needed, after doing IM St. George on 5/1 think I will get this on the calendar and snap out of my post-IM "I got nothing on the calendar" depression....
