Expert ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Our family is going to the San Diego zoo on Friday, so will most likely have to search out people for greets pre or post race Saturday. Anyone staying over Saturday night? Might get a post race dinner meet going. Edited by toddg 2009-03-25 3:48 PM |

Veteran ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() I'm shooting down on Friday mid day to register and pick up some merchandise. Bib #s are now posted. I'm 999......wonder if I'd get DQd were I to show up with two little nubby horns on my Spiuk and mistakenly wore my bib upside down? LOL Good luck to everyone! -John

Master ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Okay, I'm officially back from the dead. Cold virus is mostly gone, so I should be well enough to make a day of it out there in another week. Still a little slower than before the illness, but oh well. I will probably drive down with the wife Friday afternoon and stay in Carlsbad. Guess I better book a room soon. Have a good race everybody. And watch out for the live fire exercise as you ride through the base. Those marines don't miss with the gels, waters, and gatorades.

The Tri Club of San Diego has OW group swims almost daily. . |

Those are really good suggestions but unfortunately probably won't be able to seat together as many athletes/supporters as we'll have Yes, I am coming as Faeron's sherpa We went to a really great Italian restaurant last year--plenty of seating and lots of choices whether you want a grease-laden Alfredo or a light salad with seafood--how does that sound? What about meeting up next to the bridge that overlooks the expo and we can all walk up together?

Not friday, would like my wet suit to dry off. |

Expert ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() How did you figure out which of the wave starts you were in? The tenative start times that I saw had two categories for most of the mens AGs. Not that it really makes a difference as they are within 3 minutes of each other, just curious. |

Expert ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() toddg - 2009-03-26 3:49 PM How did you figure out which of the wave starts you were in? The tenative start times that I saw had two categories for most of the mens AGs. Not that it really makes a difference as they are within 3 minutes of each other, just curious. On the IronmanCalifornia website, go under information and scroll down. They have listed all the waves. Now for some age groups, like mine, they have three waves, so you will know when you check in by the color of the cap you receive. Good luck! |

Expert ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Yeah, the tentative start times have been posted for a quite some time, I just thought Joker70 had found some additional information when he determined the exact wave and number of people starting in the multiple series AG he's in. |

Master ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() toddg - 2009-03-26 4:18 PM Yeah, the tentative start times have been posted for a quite some time, I just thought Joker70 had found some additional information when he determined the exact wave and number of people starting in the multiple series AG he's in. Seems like bib numbers were assigned by ascending birthdate. I think that the first wave for each AG are the early bib numbers, and so on. If you search the participant list for your classification (e.g., M40-44), sort by bib #, split the results into the number of waves for your AG, that should probably give you a really good idea which wave you'll be in... |
