Regular 81 | Subject: RE: IMAZ 2011 - who's in? Awesome! I volunteered at bike special needs in the morning and took pictures all day till midnight this past weekend. I got to the registration line at 8:30, and was surprised to find that there were so many people already there. It will be my second, but first IMAZ. |

| Member 26 | Subject: RE: IMAZ 2011 - who's in? In as well. This will be my first. This year's race was suppose to be my first, but broke my pelvis in a bike accident 10 weeks prior to the start. Time for some payback. |

| New user 56 Utah | Subject: RE: IMAZ 2011 - who's in? I am in too! First IM and am super excited. I flew in to volunteer because I have family there and had expiring skymiles. Was undecided if I would sign up as I went down but being there I knew I had to do it. |

Veteran 134 Lakewood, CA | Subject: RE: IMAZ 2011 - who's in? I am in and it will be my first full IM. I volunteered at IMAZ this year, what an amazing experience. For all of you doing your first full IM I would highly recommend watching one first. |

| 60 | Subject: RE: IMAZ 2011 - who's in? I am SOOOOOOO in. I volunteered at this years race in the medical group, great experience. Stayed until the midnight hour and then was back t 5:30 in the morning to sign-up. I am also planning on doing the 1/2 in April. It is suppose to be same course as IMAZ, should be a good preview. My first time at the distance and am excited. My wife is already thinking it's going to be a long year. |

Master 2406 Bellevue, WA | Subject: RE: IMAZ 2011 - who's in? I was thinking "what April half are you talking about" so I looked it up. I presume you mean the April 10th "Marquee Triathlon" http://redrockco.com/events/event-details.cfm?id=CFC825B6-B698-4D92-D2D140A4C584CFF3 Says it's the first annual, with half Iron, Olympic, and sprint events. Swim in Tempe Town Lake, bike on the IM course with 2 loops for half. Run around Temp Town Lake, with 2 loops for the half. Very interesting. My kids' spring break is April 4-8th. And I need an early half to train for IM CDA. And the Red Rock company putting on the race sounds like they may know what they're doing. |

| 60 | Subject: RE: IMAZ 2011 - who's in? That is the 1/2 I was talking about. I have done races with Red Rock in the past and a very professional company. The course from what I've heard is to be very close to the IM course and April in Tempe should be very nice weather. Also if you haven't swam in Tempe Town lake would be a good chance to see it for yourself. |

| 60 | Subject: RE: IMAZ 2011 - who's in? That is the 1/2 I was referring to. I have raced with Red Rock in the past, very professional company. They know how to put on a great event. The course is suppose to be very similar to the IM course and should give a good preview of what to expect. Also if you've never seen/swam in Tempe Town lake will be good experience. And Tempe, AZ in April, beautiful weather should be on tap. |

Master 2406 Bellevue, WA | Subject: RE: IMAZ 2011 - who's in? Great - if Red Rock knows what they're doing, I'm going to sign up for that race. Sweet! |

| 153 | Subject: RE: IMAZ 2011 - who's in? I'm in! Missed the bike cut off at IMAZ 2009 when my deraileur hanger broke off and I lost all gears. Lesson learned, I now own an extra hanger that I keep with me in races!! Going to do Red Rock's race in April as well. They put on great races!! |

Master 2404 Redlands, CA | Subject: RE: IMAZ 2011 - who's in? Considering doing that race in the spring, but not to sound arrogant, it doesn't seem like IMAZ is a race where its overly critical to preview the course (unlike IMSG or IMLP). I'll definately do a race around that time but its a matter of doing the local one or spending some cash on a hotel and travel. |

I'll definately do a race around that time but its a matter of doing the local one or spending some cash on a hotel and travel. Having previewed it while volunteering, I'd say you are right. Spent a lot of time on the IMSG course, and it was much needed. This one, less so. The course does have some slight uphill work on the outbound, and downhill on the return. That said, the day I rode it, the tailwind going uphill made that very easy - the downhill headwind made the downhill a lot of work. If you can find some relatively flat rides to train on with some wind, I think you'd be good to go. |

You don't need to preview the course on the bike, a simple drive will or not at all is also fine. I didn't preview IMLP; I didn't even drive the course beforehand other than the Keene descent. I was fine. |
