I found the 2008 IMKY course overview with Heather Gollnick on youtube. I do not know how to include the link but it is a seven part series on youtube. This looks like it has recently been posted. It is posted by mytrakkersGPS. Hope you can find it.

I noticed a couple of things about the video....

 In the part where they show the swim to bike transition they talk about the volunteers that are there to take off your wetsuit. That of course won't happen. There will be no wetsuits.

I also think they filmed this when the website showed the modified bike course because Heather talked about "going up this hill which wasn't part of the course last year". But I think since then they have changed it back to what it was last year. Correct?

Yes Correct they have gone back to the original course. I went on a club ride Thursday and one of the Louisville Landsharks told me, also its on the IMLOU website course map.

This is great news. A couple less hills and it has the course going right by work so I can see some action. One word of caution the one lane bridge is very bumpy. I lose on average one blinky light a year on my bike commute.

I plan to have BT signs of encouragement and take as many pics as I can (I do have to treat about 30 million gallons of water that day). Speaking of which the river water quality is looking great and the temps are about 81-82*, if the wheather holds you guys will have a great day.

I promise that I'll only pee in the river once or twice.  No need to make you treat ALL of the water in the river.

Your pee is down river from the intakes, but if its any consolation I will eliminate all of Cinncinnati's pee
