Regular 86  Columbus, Ohio |  Subject: RE: Ironman 70.3 Muncie : Official ThreadDid this rave last year. Stayed at the Harris Chapel down the street from the race. Saw questions about the parking. Parking seemed tight as it's in the fields next to park and transition. It seemed last year if you arrived from the direction where this Chapel is located, it is easier as all others will be driving in from the direction they point you from the expo. Chapel is located on corner of E Co Rd 650 S and Co Rd 544 E in Selma. Don't know if this helps or takes more time to detour to this way but found no restriction getting into parking. |

I have been officially training for this since November- 16 week oly program followed by 20 week HIM. During this whole time I have only missed 3 workouts, but I still don't feel ready. Does anyone ever feel ready before their first HIM? |

Expert 1143 Wellington, Florida | Subject: RE: Ironman 70.3 Muncie : Official Thread Im using Muncie as a "up tempo" training day/brick for IMLOU. Working on race day nutrition/etc. Feeling pertty good about thngs at this point. Coach has me up over 4000yrds in the pool, a 50+ mile ride once a week with smaller more interval based rides during the week and lots of mid-range runs 6-8miles with 10K intervals (10-15mins @ about 7:40 pace) mixed in. Volunme started coming up last week as all eyes are on IMLOU in late Aug. |

| Extreme Veteran 406 | Subject: RE: Ironman 70.3 Muncie : Official Thread Hey all, if I understand the race rules, I have 2 questions:
1) You can wear a wetsuit up to 82 degrees, but above 78 or so and you relinquish the podium chance (not a factor for me) 2) Has anyone done this last year when it was the Muncie Endurathon, and do they remember if it was wetsuit legal? Thanks! |

Veteran 671 Harrison, Oh | Subject: RE: Ironman 70.3 Muncie : Official Thread From what I understand, Muncie tends to be wetsuit legal about 50% of the time. It was wetsuit legal when I participated in 2009; however, it was not wetsuit legal in 2010. I, too, am using Muncie as a "tune up" for IMKY in August. I do plan to race it, though. I really, really, really want to break 6 hours on this course and have been training to do so. I'm getting excited! |

New user 41 | Subject: RE: Ironman 70.3 Muncie : Official Thread To shave or not to shave the legs - does doing so really offer a significant streamline/drag reducing advantage? |

Expert 1143 Wellington, Florida | Subject: RE: Ironman 70.3 Muncie : Official Thread Looking forward to this one. Training and racing has been going great (had some PF in my left heel, mostly gone now) and ready for something LONG. Did the Westpoint Lake Oly last weekend in 2:28:29, set a 5min PR. Ran a solid 8 miles along Copacabana Beach in Rio on Thurs, with 3x12min 10K pace (7:30's) intervals. Rode 50 today mostly in Z3 (140+ HR) and legs are feeling good. Using this race to build for IMLOU in Aug...HYPED!!! |

Lookingg forward to it and to 70.3 Muncie. I rode by the reservoir last week and Ironman had already dropped off the semi trailers w/ the huge Ironman logo on the side! Pretty exciting to see. |

Hey Ron - they're up as well on the IronmanMuncie.com website under the tab "COURSE" and then "Swim Waves". I just got my first e-mail from IRONMAN giving all the event details. SO exciting! |

Expert 1128 Fort Riley, Kansas | Subject: RE: Ironman 70.3 Muncie : Official Thread So after reading through the athlete information, something seemed kinda odd to me. On page 13 under "Local Traffic Laws" bullet #3, it says to use local stores for the toliet. So, are there no porta potties? |
