What's the normal air temps/winds in early May? 

I see from the website that water temps are a bit chilly, but not unreasonable:

 What is the expected water temperature on race day?

  • 60 to 64-degrees F

Bike course:

http://www.mapmyride.com/route/us/ut/hurricane/145123740280865467

What I hear from a guy who runs the St George Mary every year:

1 - The town's people come out in DROVES for these races, will be WELL SUPPORTED!

2 - That hill will be a SCREAMING fast downhill X2, says its SUPER STEEP on the backside but a nice gradual climb going the way it is routed. MAJOR plus is that downhill takes you right into T2!

3 - Said guy has also swum in the lake around that time of year and says its not bad!

Yea T1 and T2 are in different spots. You take a bus to the start. Finish line is by T2.

Here is a (bit long) map of the run:

hmmm, coralling 2000+ nervous IM athletes into buses to the start?   That should make for an interesting morning.

Edit - correction - just read the FAQs.  Make that 2000+ nervous IM athletes AND, what, 2000? spectators to the swim start......

OMFG....I just had to have my car fixed last week to the tune of $200+.  Now my account is too low to register.  ARRRRRGH!!!!!

Why couldn't I have been an AIG exec instead of a public school teacher.  One of these days, I'm actually gonna get into a WTC IM event.

I am in! Yeah! I can't hardly pass this one up. I live in Salt Lake. As far as conditions go, it could be absolutely perfect. More likely, however, we will need to be really prepared for some serious wind. The weather can be pretty unpredictable that time of year. I don't care! This one is in my backyard and on a Saturday!!!!!!!!

I get the backyard part (since I'm probably doing IMFL next year because it's an hour away) but what's the advantage of a Saturday?

It's a religious preference to not race on a Sunday. I figured that I would never get to race a Ford Ironman race because the rest of them are on Sundays.

FYI FL also happens to be on a Saturday.

Ditto for me.  The only other Saturday race is Ford IM Florida...
