Crowny and I are both doing it. Swim is easy out and back - lake is nice and fairly calm. Bike and run are fairly hilly, with no big hills. The set-up at coralville is that the reservoir is at the bottom of a basin (thus a reservoir) and so you have to take a hil to get out of there. Not a lot you can do about it. The rest is pretty rolling hills - but there isn't a lot of flat anywhere around there. Their website sucks and I cannot get to a map of the course to tell you exactly about it (I used to hang there all of the time in college). Yeah, I'm on the fence. I pulled my hamstring this May going up hill (I wasn't even riding yet, just heading out of town but wasn't warmed up), and as a result I feel the weakness the most when climbing. Also, my hill climbing sucked to begin with. But it's pretty much the only sprint in Sept within a reasonable driving distance. Hmm. Decisions. |

| Alpharetta, Georgia | Subject: RE: TANgents welcome (#36) I'm riding tonight - probably in the rain. It's been on and off all day but nothing severe (fingers crossed). I rode last night and accidentally left my bike helmet and shoes in the car overnight. OMG... my car stinks so bad! And I just read the thread yesterday about washing your helmet and bike shoes. Must.Do.Tonight. |

I sent an email to the race director telling him to fix the frekin' map. I can look at it when he gets back to me and tell you how hilly it is. |

I've read the RR's here (and some other places) and it seems pretty hilly. It's not that I'm a wuss (even though I am slow), I just don't want to set myself back. Unless the course changes drastically from last year, I probably won't do it (unless I relay). |

Offer still stands for you to come down to the South Burbs on a Saturday or Sunday and do a long ride with me. Get your mind off things, and such. |

I may take you up on that offer when I get back. We're going to Colorado starting Friday through the following Sunday. Gonna ride mountains and maybe meet the elusive Regimom. Maybe. |
