Ironman 70.3 Augusta : Official Thread (Page 23)

Look for me.  I will be dong it again.  Despite the weather on the bike it was great.  I was told through a post from Cube that Augusta is better than the Disney 70.3.  I did both this year and will have to agreee.  I live in Orlando and I am doing Disney again just because it is here, but Augusta is much better.  The run course in Disney is terrible.  The bike and swim are fine, but the run course is a deal breaker.  I had a great time and met several BT's.

Im OUT for 2011, nothing bad about the race, just looking to tri new things.
Doing my first Full in 2011 @ IM Lou in Aug, then looking to close out the year @ 70.3 Miami in late Oct. Next years race schedule is all about prep for IM LOU with mostly Oly distance races & only 6-7 races total for the season, down from 12 this summer.
You'll most likely see me back @ Augusta in 2012 going for a Clearwater spot!

WHOA cube-12! I did 8 and that felt like ALOT-did you do any prep 10K's or 5K's in there as well or strictly Tri's?
Im building next year now, (stage 1:wide open options list) not sure how i feel about it yet.

Any idea when we can begin signing up?  This will be 3 for 3 for me!

Anyone still not get their Medal?  Not that I ned one but based on prices we are paying WTC, darn, I thought by now they would have sent me one or at least a letter saying they would?  Just asking.

I was told it would take approximately 6 weeks to get medals

Please post when you get your medals.  I agree.  For the price we should all get one!

I'm sure you mean a "Las Vegas" spot!!!
Good luck next year! 

I received my medal on Monday. No apology letter, no nothing, just a medal in an envelope.

Well at least I finally received mine.

Have you received your's yet?

I still haven't recieved my medal.  I will e-mail them this evening.  Yesterday I registered for 2011.  That will be #3 for me (all three years). Anyone else register yet?

How many people did not get medals or at what time mark did they run out?  I finished in the high five hour mark (5:50 ish).  I honestly cannot remember if I got one or not.  My buddy finished 15 minutes ahead and he has a medal.  I've scrounged around the house (after not finding it in my medal pile) and cannot come up with it for the life of me.  Maybe I did not get one at all? 

The people that didn't get medals were in the 2010 race, not the 2011 race (to my knowledge). At least, their posts are from 2010.

subbing to thread...i'm signed up for 2012

Signed up....new to tri's.  A few sprints and an olympic this spring/summer.  Augusta will be my first half.  Can't wait.

Planning on doing Augusta as my first HIM. Woohoo!

Me! First 70.3.

Are we using this thread instead of the other thread?
