Haven't been tracking this thread for a while but it looks like a great crew! I'll be out there cheering everybody on; cocktail in hand. I've promised my friend to have a new Gin & Tonic for each lap they run!
If there are any emergency needs or if anyone needs a place to stay, just let me know. Seriously. |

Pro 4174 Keller, Texas | Subject: RE: Ironman Texas This is one of the best thins I have read! Don't eat the paste. Ironman in general, but especially the bike leg, is at best a special ed class: you only have to show up with your C game to be at the head of the class. If you find yourself doing the opposite of everyone else, you're doing the right thing. If Jimmy and everyone else is in the corner eating the paste, don't join them! Sit down, do what we're telling you, and don't eat the paste! Lots of people passing you in the first 40 miles? That's good, don't eat the paste. Going backwards through the field on a hill? That's good, don't eat the paste. Think you made the mistake of riding too easy? You now have 26 miles to fix that mistake. Make the mistake of riding too hard? That mistake now has 26 miles to express itself, to the tune of X miles at 17-18' walking pace vs X miles at 8-10' running pace. Do the math. How is that bike split going to look as you are walking/shuffling the last 10 miles of the run? Every time you feel yourself about to get stupid, look at where you are. Are you at The Line? No. Then sit down, shut up, do what you're told and don't be stoopid. Please.  |

As much as I like gin and tonics, I'm not sure it would be a great idea for me to start drinking at 830am... |

Veteran 220 Plant City, Florida Bronze member | Subject: RE: Ironman Texas Getting close
The RV is packed, the horse set to stay at the neighbors (he’ll be spoiled by our return), the dogs are excited, and the wife is wondering how is it I do all this and still not lose weight.
All I need to do is complete the HIM Florida (70.3) on Sunday and I will be cruising up the Highway.
I do have a question for anyone who might know. I will be parking at one of the local RV parks but was wondering if Race day parking might be possible. What I’m referring to is my RV and possibly parking the night before (not setting up just parking). This would be the base for my team (Wife, Mother-in-law, and the wolf pack)?
