IMTX #3 for me .. why stop the streak.. I figure if I do it enough times maybe one day I will be able to put all 3 disciplines together into one solid race! haha  haha ... I was planning on signing up, just kept putting it off. So yes, that was part of it, the other part was all the guys from our tri group who did it last year are going again, and I didnt want to be the odd man out!! LOL ... Plus I really do want to have a good run there at some point! |

Veteran 200 Houston, TX | Subject: RE: 2013 IMTX Teammates (Jockstrap Catapult) who raced IMTX last year said the run course made the entire event worth it. The sections along the river were amazing. Everyone out there was cheering everyone along all day/night long. It's such a spectator friendly event with the run course encompassing the woodlands downtown area it makes it that much better. |

Can anyone tell me how quick this race usually fills, if it does? Thank you Took 30 days for the 2011 race to sellout. Took five months for the 2012 race to sellout. My guess would be somewhere in between. |

Member 15 Austin, TX | Subject: RE: 2013 IMTX Hey there: I noticed that there are 2 threads for IMTX 2013 (http://www.beginnertriathlete.com/discussion/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=451720&posts=18&mid=4320991&highlight=Memorial+Hermann+Ironman+Texas+&highlightmode=1&action=search#M4320991 Should we agree on an "official" one. Looking forward for IMTX 2013 After doing IMFL 2011 I am expecting this one to be much harder... |

Expert 1274 Houston, TX | Subject: RE: 2013 IMTX I loved doing this race and will be back in 2014 for sure! This time I plan on actually training and not finishing with 25 minutes to spare! How's that for a plan??? I really did love this course. The run is so much fun along the waterway but on the flip side having the other half of the loop fairly empty was nice also. You get treated like a rockstar for 3-4 miles and bombarded with crazy energy and then you get to relax and have some peace and quiet for the next 3-4 miles and then do it all over again, and then again! Good luck to everyone this year. I will be volunteering for sure! |

I wonder if this will encourage WTC to move the date or location. Discuss. I think it will sell out once everyone's A option sells out. I think the location will probably move once the contract is up. I wonder what Galveston's 70.3 deal looks like? I'm sure they'd love to take on a full as they're already a tourist trap. Move it into the 70.3 time of year and you are wetsuit legal too. I just think mid May temps in TX scare off yankees. |

Pro 4824 Houston | Subject: RE: 2013 IMTX uhcoog - 2012-11-21 8:02 AM I agree with all of this. You can't blame the poor Yanks training in 50-60 degrees on nice days and coming here to 90s, surely a shock. It is both the temps and swim that keeps me away and I am here! More an issue with the canal than wetsuit. I've been out there both years and just about everybody was suffering in the heat. For most the bulk of training is in cooler temps.KeriKadi - 2012-11-21 7:52 AM Caufee Tawk.....So Florida and Arizona sell out in a minute and it loos like Texas will need a Schwaggle deal to sell out.

Pro 4723 CyFair | Subject: RE: 2013 IMTX I like the heat.  Works much better for me than the cold. My swim is going to be iffy no matter where it's held so I figured I'd do my first on the cheap. On the cheap....... LOL. |
