Expert  1076   Las Vegas, NV |  Subject: RE: Ironman Arizona : Official ThreadIs it 'allowed' to remove clothing during the race and give to family members? My plan was to start with a warmer top over the tri shirt and then take it off after the first lap once the air temp warms up. |

Extreme Veteran 710 Wilmington, NC | Subject: RE: Ironman Arizona : Official Thread I did my first ever 'century' ride yesterday! Wow...I now have a whole new respect for what we are about to do in November! I felt really good up until mile 85 and then started to have foot pain. I couldn't even imagine running a marathon yesterday after that ride!  Yikes...good thing we have 11 more weeks to go! |

| Regular 106 SF Bay Area, California | Subject: RE: Ironman Arizona : Official Thread Hope everyone's training is going well. I am getting more and more confident I will make it to the start. Injuries are getting better, just much slower than I had hoped and expected. Did a 50 Miler and a short three mile run yesterday. This is the longest I have been able to do since my accident. It is really fun to check out the Wisconsin race video. Our turn is coming soon. |

Extreme Veteran 419 San Jose, CA | Subject: RE: Ironman Arizona : Official Thread Going well here - in the 2nd week of a 3 week build. Very bummed that the 2.4 mi OW swim race I was to do yesterday (my 1st time at that distance) was cancelled due to lightning, but I have a big BIG training week ahead and I'm ready to rock it. I too will be at Augusta but I decided I didn't want to deal with the hassle of flying my bike nor losing 1 training week to recovery at this stage, so I'll just be doing the swim leg and then turning in my chip and cheering for all my friends (I alraedy had plane tickets so I'm coming out there anyway). |

Expert 1226 Chicago | Subject: RE: Ironman Arizona : Official Thread Can I just say that after volunteering at IMoo I am officially scared sh*tless? The swim start looked brutal (and we've got a thinner channel to start, right?) and one chick came out looking like Rocky Balboa had kicked the crap out of her. And don't even get me started on the condition of some of the gals as they rolled into the T2 change room. Oof. I'm trying to focus on the memories of the finish line to wash away some of the bad imagery I had! |

Veteran 349 Ironman Arizona via Surf City, USA | Subject: RE: Ironman Arizona : Official Thread Just a quick post before bed... had 2 hr bike tonight after work and did 30 miles in 1:55.. Had 3:07 ride Sunday afternoon and got in 47 miles.. Got 5 hr ride Saturday with 2:30 hr run on Sunday... Coach is ramping me up for this month and next month.. I feel great after the rides and runs so I truct in his training judgement. Sticking to a 6-day-a-week training schedule with all long stuff Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays.. Really looking forward to an 8 hr ride in a few weeks just to see how my butt deals with it.. Hope everyone is doing good and Jay, just like to was mentioned, think about the good things and the happy people that finsihed.. Trust in your training and all should be well.. As far as Rocky beating the crap out of me in the swim, is why I will be at the back and will let everybody else beat the crap out of each other.. I just want to get thru the swim.. After that I have a good a chance as anybody else to finish legal.. I will be the one lit up like a christmas tree on the run!!! Lori..

Yes, I think if we just let the horn blow on race day morning and count to 10 before starting to swim it will be less hectic in the water. |
