 Alpharetta, Georgia Bronze member |  Subject: RE: Ironman 70.3 Kansas : Official ThreadHere are some more visuals - from last year: T1 - the lake is right behind the person taking the photo. The green bags are what they will transport up to the finish line afterwards. Don't mind me T2 |

| Wisconsin | Subject: RE: Ironman 70.3 Kansas : Official Thread Thanks these are great. The aerial shot is helpful and also explains why it looked like T2 was in the middle of the run! |

I really don't care if its wetsuit legal or not as far as the swim goes. Its just that I bought a wetsuit specifically for this race so I'd hate to not get to use it. lol |

Extreme Veteran 516 Olathe, KS | Subject: RE: Ironman 70.3 Kansas : Official Thread It looks like the swim wave schedule has been updated. I once again will be one of the last waves to start. Oh, and the still too soon weather forecast from accuweather has the forecast set at a high of 77 degrees and cloudy. |

I once again will be one of the last waves to start. Oh, and the still too soon weather forecast from accuweather has the forecast set at a high of 77 degrees and cloudy. Looks like I'll be in Wave 15. I've never done a race with two waves of the same AG. That's got to be confusing during a race not knowing if your being passed by the guy who is 4 minutes behind you or in your own wave. Oh well, not like I'm going to podium so I guess it doesn't really matter. lol |

Veteran 253 Omaha, NE | Subject: RE: Ironman 70.3 Kansas : Official Thread Barkeep - 2012-05-22 11:26 AM Wave 6, so lots of swimmers to swim over/by me! Wouldn't that weather be fantastic! It's been so hot here, and I've really been struggling to run in it. On Sunday it was 77 and running was so much better!! Can't believe how close it's getting, my stomach is in knots. It looks like the swim wave schedule has been updated. I once again will be one of the last waves to start.

OK, the swim is just a little longer, and the bike is double, and the run is double. But other than that its the same thing. |

Pro 4339 Husker Nation | Subject: RE: Ironman 70.3 Kansas : Official Thread Woohoo, light pink swim caps! Guess if they're already divvying up swim waves I better get registered, huh? I didn't procrastinate--I was going to see how my body held up through training and if I made it through the toughest part then I'd sign up. Well, that time is now, so, here goes nothing! |

Thank you. In the FAQ section: Timing Back to top What are the courses cut off times? Swim: 1 hour and 10 minutes after the final wave start. Bike: 5 hours and 30 minutes after the final wave start. Run: 8 hours and 30 minutes after the final wave start. |

Member 20 Davis, Ok | Subject: RE: Ironman 70.3 Kansas : Official Thread Thanks to all. 2 more questions, I heard if you need to you can use the float bouyes for a breather on the swim and what about the ansi approved helmets, I cannot find that on mine, it has a sticker that says CE conforms to EN 1078 will this be legal? |

I think your helmet has a European safety standard, my guess is it will be ok. FWIW I've only had my helmet looked at once out of 12 races or so. Do you ever get down to The Texoma area for training. I used to enjoy heading up your way for some long bike rides |
