I worked T1 last year and we put all the morning clothes bags and T1 bags in the same area where the T1 bags...tried to sort them so your T1 and morning clothes bags were together..making it eaiser for you to pick them up...I didn't see where they put the T2 bags after you were done with them. I understood you DID NOT get your SN bags back. Someone posted you could fill a food bank with all the food that was left in the SN bags after the race. Mr Steve |

| Member 42 Mobile | Subject: RE: Ironman Florida : Official Thread Sounds like everyone is as jumpy as I am. Yesterday I got an email from IM and almost jumped outta my skin...until I read it was just another confirmation of registration. Good Grief!! I got notice of our local 10k run occurring on 03-27-10 asking me to sign up. I'm like, "wait a minute, there are other things going on other than IMFL". I am living in the IM Bubble. |

If I can't control it I dont' worry about it I am just prepared for it. Weather forcast will change about 25 times between now and then. Dont' stress/worry/obsess over it. I am one of the obsessive folks that have been checking for bib numbers for the last three weeks...that was until Monday. Monday afternoon my 7 yr old son was involved in an "explosion" that seriously injured him, leaving him with a major brain injury. He is doing ok, but it sure has put things in perspective for me. We have all put a lot of ourselves into the race. Our time, our energy, our money...our lives. And, many others have made sacrifices for us to do this. We are lucky to have the opportunity to do this. I hope to be in FL, , but I am not sure I will be. If I am I will surely be nervous, however things are now in a whole new light. Last week at this time I would not have paid much attention to Socks' comment "Dont' stress/worry/obsess over it" now I am living by it ... as far as IMFL goes Everyone be safe out there! Have a good weekend, Linda |

OMG I am so so sorry to hear of this. I hope he comes thru with flying colors and you are able to make it to the race. He will be in thoughts and prayers. We DO all invest a LOT of ourselves in this ironman thing but the bottom line is that there are lots more important things in life, like this, to tie yourself into knots over. Focus on your son and family. If you get to come, fantastic, it will be icing on the cake, but if not there will be other IMs. |
