Ironman USA Lake Placid (Page 9)

That was my plan!! Unfortunately, Jeff has "lost" his wetsuit.  I hope he finds it by next Saturday, or its gonna be a rough morning in Narragansett.

Am I the only person who can't keep sgillen and dgillen straight? I've met dgillen...or so I think .

And what is Miss Bethy's relationship to them? Married to one?

I put no more stock in this forecast than I do horoscopes or tea leaves, but a guy can dream... 

Sunday, Jul 20

More Details

Times of clouds and sun

Low: 53 °F

High: 74 °F

You had me at 74 .

Yeah, I'm not going to look at the weather forecast too much. I don't want to stress over nothing as we all know how unsteady the weather is up there. You can have beautiful and sunny and cloudy and storming each like 8 times a day.

Gotcha! It's cool ! haha.

So, how is it chillin wit gillen?

"the shizzle?"

I like it and I intend to follow a similar plan!

Also, I'm with you re: Stadler. I'd love sneak a peak and maybe even get an autograph! Why not

OK, I've been lurking on this thread for a while, but now that Lauren has called me out, I'm going to start posting more often and confusing everyone!  

Believe me, Steve (sgillen) and I were unclear for a while too.  The first time I saw a post from sgillen I thought my wife (Sarah) had a finally got an account on BT and had started posting! I quickly checked out the profile and found out it was Steve, not Sarah.  We PM'd back and forth a few times and determined we're not related.

Anyway, I hope to meet Steve and everyone else in 2 weeks, and yes, Lauren, it was this Gillen that you met at Timberman last year!

haha. Good to hear from you. The worst is when I get inspires from one of you and there's no avatar to go along with it .

And Sgillen, you need to find me at the lake one day before the race. I think you were good luck last year.

Go watch WALL-E and have a good cry!

I have zero nerves at this point.  I might as the day gets closer, but even at FL last year I was uncannily calm all the way up to the start.

You want some of mine?

My "drastic" reduction in hours still has me doing an 11 hour week with double sessions Tues-Thurs. I'm concentrating on some good, short, quality workouts rather than drive myself nuts.

What's you volunteer post, runnerx? I'm co-captain of Volunteer Food and Fun tent in the oval......still seeking volunteers if anyone is interested.....and there's a priority registration line for IM 2009 for those volunteers who work 4 or more hours........though obviously if you are racing this year, that's not an option for you folks.
