Subject: RE: Ironman USA Lake Placid : Official ThreadAlso, thanks for the replies about the shuttles and such. Sounds like I can have them do what I initially planned. Get as close as possible on race morning, hang out for the start, then leave after I get on the bike, then come back and use satellite parking lots + shuttle to get back in so they can see me on the run. I told them they should go back to Keene or go for a hike while I'm on the bike and then come back for the run and the finish. Mostly, I don't want to super inconvenience them--yes, I am having them come watch me do a 13+ hour race at a location 5 hours away from their homes, and yes, I do see the irony of that statement--and also, selfishly, I don't want to have to worry about them while I'm racing. |
