Subject: RE: Memorial Hermann Ironman Texas : Official ThreadGreat ride and run on the course this weekend. We started from the Middle School that is just north of the Walmart on Woodlands Parkway. Did the entire course north of the school, but also did the loop west of Richards twice so we would have 100 miles when we got back to the school (ended up with 102 total miles). Saturdays weather was awesome! Cool, mostly overcast, and the winds werent bad at all. Ran about 5 miles off the bike when we got to the hotel and dropped our gear, then had dinner and beers at Grimaldis. Ran the course this morning then left to come back to Dallas. All told is was 102 miles on the road and 20 miles running this weekend! Legs are tired and sore for sure! For those who ride the course every weekend, my Garmin showed 3500 ft of elevation, but that just doesnt seem right? Ive never had much faith in the elevation on my garmin, but would like to know what some of the regulars see when the ride the course. Thanks! Edited by se7930 2013-03-24 8:57 PM
