Who's interested in telling us their race plans for the weekend?  ANYONE???

For those of us that are sitting on the sidelines, I bet you've been dreaming about some big goals in your future.  Might be for next year or even farther in the future. Care to share?



No racing for this peep, but I do have some long term goals....I'll unveil one in the hopes I can get some others to join me...two IM in one year....Lake Placid and IM WI in '12.....you East Coasters could consider joining me...plenty of time to get ready and the course is in your neck of the woods.

Go Go GO LINDA!!  140.6 spread out over the weekend sounds harder than all in one day!  Go Triple T Girl.  You'll do great and the weather should be fantastic for you!!!



Next year is pretty obvious for me, doing the IMCA!!!   I must admit that after Augusta I'm pretty psyched!  I felt great after that race and have the confidence that, with the proper training,  I really can complete an ironman.  To be honest it is the marathon that scares me.  For some reason the bike course feels long but doable however the idea of running a marathon afterwards just sounds so daunting.  BUT CONFIDENCE GIRL,,,,, YOU'LL BE READY.    Lots of gggggrrrrrrrrrrr in the tank!

So when do you officially start training? what plan are you using? I'm not expert for sure, but a well managed bike can make the marathon doable.  You'll see once you do those long bricks!

I'm racing...a long one.  Fri pm - Sprint.  Sat am - Olympic.  Sat pm - Olypmic.  Sunday am - HIM.
No idea what to expect.  They call it epic and painful.  
On top of the races I have strep or some bug.  We'll see what the doc says today. 


Awesome!  Very intriguing concept!

If you want one closer to home, hit Triple T in Ohio....supposed to make the IM WI bike course look like it's for babies....

I'm calling a 3:33 finish - 22 minutes to spare.  Of course, I have nothing to base this on.....just a gut feeling. GO!

PROPS!!!!  AWESOME JOB!!!!

sorry, i've been on the phone and emailing with a few of the RD's in the new 5150 series.  looks like jdwright got more info on Hy-Vee.  man people are getting worked up over nothing.  

the rd at st'a' made it clear to that WTC didn't buy them.  they, St. A's, chose to participate in the series.

oh and you catch my first post.  NYC sold out in 6 minutes last year 22 the year before (over 3000 slots).  NO price change, yet people are still screaming about price increases    LOL!!!!!!

Only $200?  That has to be the cheapest Mile per dollar event in the Nation!

To bad its a week after Knoxville next year and I am not going to miss the "coaching session" on how to improve my T2 time with the Master of Ceremonies (that would be John) from the MG!

Will it be streaming live for those of us who can't be there, but need to learn how to do T2 without the help of a mimosa?

Have you heard any details on the Galveston Oly in this series?  It appears to be a new event....or is it they moved the Lone Star Oly to October, but keeping the HIM and Sprint in April?

They did stream Rev3 last year.  Or at least tried to, I think they had some technical difficulties.

As for the IM Oly series, meh, don't really care, most of those races were never on my list to do anyways.  Not interested in 10,000 person Olympics.  Too many people on too small of a course.

I wouldn't pay more for IM vs any other race unless I thought I was getting more out of it.

Full distance IM vs. Full distance non-IM brand I think there still is a gap, the HIM's and below not so much.
