IM Distance or Name? (Page 2)

For my first (and very likely only) IM I wanted a M-Dot branded race. I wanted the hype. The crowds. I wanted 2,000 people on the course, so when I finished late in the night I wouldn't be alone. I wanted the tacky logo and "Finishers" stuff to buy the next day. I figured if I only do one in my lifetime, better do it up big!

IF... a VERY BIG IF... I do another one in my lifetime... it won't have to be M-Dot branded. The distance is the same no matter if "Ford" sponsors it or not. It was expensive for me to do a M-Dot branded race, so next time (IF there ever is a next time), I will probably go a less expensive route.

PS- I don't care if a HIM is "M-Dot" branded or not.
