Expert ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() We've got a ton of people coming over from AZ next year. This will be my first Oceanside and I've heard a lot about "The Hill". |

Veteran ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() FYI, checked with them on Friday to see how full the race is:
Camille Evans, Aug-19 02:47 pm (CDT): Hello Chris, Thank you for your e-mail. Ironman 70.3 California is over 90% full at this time. In order to guarantee a slot I recommend registering as soon as possible. Regards- Camille Evans |

Extreme Veteran ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Looking forward to this one - I have a buddy in CA who has competed in this the last two (2) years. His summary of the course was very similar to what has already been said. Should be fun in 2012! |

Extreme Veteran ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() ChrisM is the Oceanside expert. His course tips helped me a ton last year. I finished 6th in my AG, missing the little M-Dot trophy by 1 spot. It won't happen again this year! I'll be gunning for podium. |

I think sdmike knows way more about it than I do, but I'l take credit anywhere it's given (although I do think the advice to ride topanga canyon was good I convinced an old water polo buddy to sign up a couple days ago, glad I did that. Looking forward to a course preview ride or two. Edited by ChrisM 2011-08-24 3:03 PM |

Master ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() I'm toying with training plans for Oceanside. This will be my third time back. What plans are you using and when will you start your race specific training? |

What plans are you using and when will you start your race specific training? I usually use the same training plan whether I'm doing a half or a full, I'll just cut back on the distances a bit for a half! I am hoping to do the HITS Half in Palm Springs Dec 04 then really start upping my mileage for Oceanside. After Oceanside I will really up mileage for a summer IM! I've bought training plans before, but usually get frustrated and go back to mine. |

haven't selected the plan yet, but I'm moving into maintenance mode for the swim and bike so I can focus on a few run events this fall. I'll probably start into a 70.3 plan just before the first of the year. Edited by Fitzy 2011-09-07 12:06 PM |

Member ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() I know its about a little under 7 months before the race but I am already pumped. I even got my condo rented. I hope I am as prepared as I plan to be. |

Extreme Veteran ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Word from the RD is a potential change to the bike course and a run finish at the pier. Not sure exactly what that means, but will keep you posted if I hear anything specific. Will look forward to some preview ride/bricks in the new year! |

I was looking at that hotel at the pier for this year, maybe I'll make some just in case reservations |

My husband heard the same thing last year while volunteering in the med tent. There was some discussion of a pier finish last year but the stuck the the old course. I'm interested to see what the run (and bike course) looks like if they change it. I like the current bike course design. The hills and ocean breeze (wind) keep things interesting. |

The weekend before and after there are no night minimums, and the rooms are $179 or so. The weekend of the race is a 3 night minimum (which makes no sense) and lowest rate is $269 |
