New user 24 Seattle | Subject: RE: Ironman Coeur d'Alene : Official Thread If I recall correctly, bib numbers came out on June 13th last year... about a week before the race. Anyone else find themselves checking for numbers, weather forecasts, and lake temps every day? Gotta' love all the pre-race jitters. |

Last year, the race was a little later in the month (like the 25th), and yes, I'm waiting (very impatiently) for bib numbers. |

Does anyone know what mile the special needs bag will be on the bike? the run??? nerves are beginning to get to me... I am going out for a run. In past years the Bike SNB has been at the Higgins Point turn-around, about mile 60. The Run SNB is just outside of T2, about miles 0.5, 2, 12 and 13 (you pass it 4 times and can pick up anytime). |

Can i pick it up multiple times? Should be able to but there is a risk once it comes out of the box the first time. The key is to put give it back to a volunteer and tell them that you want it back on your next lap. If you just leave it on the side of the road it may not be there when you come by again. I picked mine up twice in 2006. |

I'm still trying to ignore it and pretend that I have a long way to go! Is it normal to start panicking a couple weeks out and feeling woefully unprepared? My wife and I are both racing, and we're both starting to flip out! |

Veteran 297 | Subject: RE: Ironman Coeur d'Alene : Official Thread I'm trying to ignore it and just make it through work this week! trying not to stress about all the things we can't control and not waste too much energy getting excited too early sent my bike with tri bike transport today, that was kind of a relief since it forced me to go through my packing list and get a bag together to go! Feeling tired still so trying to get caught up on sleep and enjoy taper but its hard not being stressed!!!! |

Member 15 Gillingham, Kent,UK | Subject: RE: Ironman Coeur d'Alene : Official Thread A week to go until I fly out and 1 day left at work! Getting excited but also nervous that I haven't done enough training. I know that this a natural feeling, but definately have done less training than last years effort for Lanzarote. I am bravely (or stupidly) putting up my race goal of cracking 12 hrs overall and a sub 4 hr marathon. Did 12:13' in Lanza with a 4:02 run/shuffle/walk/shuffle/walk/walk/shuffle/walk/run.
