Ironman Arizona : Official Thread (Page 65)

My husband and I arrived in Tempe yesterday are so excited about the Ironman!  My bib # is 969 and Seth is 316.  Would love to meet some of you this weekend.  Good luck to everyone.

The Beeline is notorious for causing flats (I think I've had 3-4), however, it's the shoulder that is full of glass and weeds...I'm not nearly as concerned being that we'll be on the newly paved (and hopefully swept) roads. I'm rolling with my Pro 4's with 2 tubes 2 CO2s.  I'm hoping for the best...

cjhild - 2012-11-16 12:57 PM I really want this jacket for IMAZ: http://ironmanstore.com/events/ironman/ironman-texas/ironman-texas-... like they don't sell it until Monday. Does anyone know if this jacket usually sells out Monday or do they typically have them online for order after? I REALLY don't want to go sit in line Monday morning. Edit: I can't post stuff right from the iPad, not sure if that link will work. It is the black one, $139.95, says FINISHER on the back with the distances under, event embroidery on the front.

I don't have the answer to your question, but I will be in line for some sort of "finisher" memorabilia...My girlfriend is signing up for next year so I promised her I'd wait in line with her to register. I'm taking the day off work so I'm looking forward to laying down the rest of the day.

Does anyone know are helmets reequired to be in the bike gear bag, or can you bring it in the morning and have it waiting on the aerobars?

Nevermind found it, goes in bag

Re: The finisher jacket..if you really want the jacket-prepare to stand in line. Last year  I was lucky enough to see the last 2 women's jackets that the staff put out...Some woman nearly assaulted me  to get one..she literally followed me & heckled me & stood behind me as I tried on 2 sizes & would NOT go away until I handed her the one in her size..seriously..!!!! 

GOOD LUCK RACERS!! Be warm & fast for the swim , take it all in & enjoy the day that you have earned..!In 48 hrs (give or take!)you will all be IRONMEN!!!
