I'll just head over to the beer tent and let y'all fight it out. See, that's why those of us that were/are Air Force NCO's are the smart ones: we send the officers off to get shot at.

Speaking of beer, for those of you close to The Woodlands there's an IM TX get together at Goose's Acre tomorrow night (Friday the 23rd from 6:30-9:00).

Crazy, filling a IM without even knowing the course.

I think we are a little insane

 not really.. for the first one

Definately for the 2nd one

 But we already know where the swim will be, and most likely the run,  and while we don't know the exact roads of the bike, we have a very good idea of the terrain.  It doesn't matter, To Me, if we are on Road 1A or road 3B, the basic big picture strategy is going to be the same no matter which roads I'm on. Sure it will be nice to go down to drive it before hand,while there is lots of time it's not going to change any type of training for it.

yup, I'm sure you all have a good idea of what the course will be. I've created variations on a few courses. Nothing earth-shatteringly different for any of them. We have to have final approval for the one that all of the authorities would prefer, and we're working on that I can say that everyone has been very cooperative, and great to work with

Must be respectful towards the various agencies involved with the event. They've been fantastic, and we owe them that respect

Off to drive a bike course option or two right now. Ran the run course yesterday.
