Master 1920 Ann Arbor, MI | Subject: RE: IM Kansas 70.3 Hey! I am racing KS70.3 as well! Just signed up earlier this week, since I didn't have my travel plans nailed down until now. Looks like it should be a challenging race- gotta love hills and wind! Is anyone else doing the collegiate race? Did you know they're giving away a free Javelin bike for the M/F winner of the collegiate division? Gotta love that grad school counts  Happy training! |

I signed up for the wrong division... if only I was fast enough to win if I did. If you still want to try, you can sign up for collegiate at race day. You still compete in your AG but also compete for your college. Just to warn you, the guy I'm racing with is trying for 4:15-4:30 |

Yes... then I can save my energy to try and hang on during the run, beat him in a sprint to the finish. Perfect plan! |

Expert 939 Tulsa | Subject: RE: IM Kansas 70.3 At IMCali 70.3 this year i didn't see any specific order. I am in the 18-24 and i was right in the middle with the 45-49 AG. All the 30-34 were at the end because there were so many of them. So i'm not sure what their reason is for the order. |

Veteran 582 Golden, CO | Subject: RE: IM Kansas 70.3 Ready, set, commence tapering. I finished my last long run (just under 2 hours) this morning, and I am ready to start the taper. I am feeling good, I have done all the work, so give me a little rest, then bring it on. How is every one else feeling? T minus 15 days, 18 hours. . . |

Expert 844 Denver, Colorado | Subject: RE: IM Kansas 70.3 I've felt better but I'll finish the race. Not as quite as I originally hoped but I'll get there. Riding the course tomorrow, maybe I'll feel better then. All are welcome to join 8am at the race site.. probably do a little of everything. Edited by climbin5414 2008-05-30 1:19 PM |

Master 1920 Ann Arbor, MI | Subject: RE: IM Kansas 70.3 Is anyone camping at the race? My training partner most likely has a stress fracture, so I might be traveling on my own for this race. Good news for any other male collegiate athletes, though. Since I'll be by myself for this race, I was hoping to camp, possibly near some other BTers, so I don't get too lonely |

Veteran 200 Golden, CO | Subject: RE: IM Kansas 70.3 How is every one else feeling? After the 45/6 mile brick on Monday, the PR at the weekly TT series on Wed and Swim/Run today, I am tired, my legs are tired, and I am tired, and I've never felt better in my life. One long bike tomorrow and its nothing but donuts and couch surfin til father's day!  |

Expert 1226 Chicago | Subject: RE: IM Kansas 70.3 I came up just shy of 56 earlier today, too. But I also forgot to start my forerunner right when I began cycling. Makes me wonder where the mount line will be as the parking lot presumably for transition has a lot of loose gravel in it. Not sure where the 3000+ came in with elevation. Check out motionbased.com for what others pulled on the elevation. It really depends on the satellites and coverage and what not. |
