IMCDA Are you ready? (Page 20)

Ditto!!  I'm really starting to get stoked!!  Even had a dream about the race the other night!  Desiree Ficker and I were.....oh wait...wrong dream!! 

I was wondering if I was going to have to keep a wary eye out for you! 

Hello All-

Our church is conducting a IronPrayer for any athlete at 4pm in Sherman Park Square which is right on the main street (Sherman) between 3rd and 4th street.  You will run down Sherman for your finish. There will be music, food, etc and some good community.  Please come if you desire.  Families welcome.

Almost forgot about the bike course tour....

We can meet at the clock tower (corner of 1st and Sherman) at 2pm and drive the bike course.  I can carry 5 (including me).  I believe Flyboy and T said they could drive some folks as well.  Pretty quick drive and we could cover the run as well.  We would be done by 4pm.

Let me know if you are interested!  Taper on!!

While getting out of the shower yesterday, I heard...

"What have you done!"

Back off boys, she's mine

(Imagine all of us DNS'ing because we kicked the crap out of each other arguing over this )

What day? I'll have some kind of rental SUV and can drive as well.

Me too...I'll have a minivan.  Enough room for me, Desiree, and....well, nevermind, just us two.  Sorry, guys.

OK boys-

Put some of that Desiree energy into the race and you may beat Heather Gollnick across the finish line.

Course tour and IronPrayer all on Friday 6/23.  There is an athlete meeting on 6/24! 

Who would be interested in me finding a place for us to get together Monday evening for food/beer?  Let me know and I will get a place!!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!

I'm in as a maybe on Monday, will have to see how Sunday goes and if I need to be back at work or not.

If anyone is interested and would like to meet up I am planning on doing the Gatorade morning swim on Friday (maybe Thursday as well).  Shooting for around 7:30-8:00, not looking to swim long just get wet.  Will firm up plans around Monday of Race Week.   

Count me in for the bike course tour.  I have a Suburban and can probably fit 7 people (depends on whether or not Desiree is with me! ).  Also I'm planning on doing the Gatorade morning swim on Friday too.  And count me in for Monday evening.  I'm going to soak up every possible experience I can for that weekend!  Can't wait!

Whats the Gatorade swim thingy.  I was planning on a short swim on Friday.

17 days.  I'll be the guy with the Miniture looking Yellow Cocker Lab, straining at the leash to lick everyone.   (The dog wants to lick, not me)

Hello Everyone-

I will put together a schedule for Fri am through race and post race festivities.  Quick look....

Friday am - Gatorade swim

Friday 2p - Bike/run course tour

Friday 4p - IronPrayer

Sat afternoon- there is a mandatory athlete meeting

Sun - you all know

Monday is awards luncheon and I will get a place for dinner.  Hope everyone like Mexican food and cold beer.  I have a hankering!!

I'm ALL OVER IT when it comes to Mexican food and cold beer...those are my staple crops (I live on the border of Texas and Mexico).

Sounds like a great weekend...is Sunday a rest day from all the activities??

What is the Gatorade swim thing? - From 7:00am to 10:00am Thursday, Friday, and Saturday Gatorade will have a booth set up where you can check in your dry gear while you go and swim.  At the same time the swim course will be set up and closed to boats.  At the end of your swim you get your stuff back plus some other Gatorade free stuff.  Go chance to swim the course.

This has nothing to do with picking up your race chips and other things.  This takes place from 10:00am to 4:00pm.
