Subject: RE: Ironman TahoeI also like the new bike course. I have only driven the course in 2014 and the Northstar section was odd to say the least. Going through parking lots and such. Seemed like the only reason for it was to add elevation to the bike course. Now it looks more streamlined. There was SO much road construction all over the course last year and anticipate that being finished for this year's race
Hope we get to race this year. The wild fires are crazy. Living in the mountains of Colorado, I've always said that wildfires are our hurricane/tornado. We have been fortunate in Colorado for the past few years though. Lots of rain (at least where I live ). I wish we could send some of it to the West Coast. As much as I want to race this year it is just a race and I hate thinking of people in the Tahoe area/Northern California area living on the edge all summer. Been there and it sucks.
However, with that said, I will be so disappointed if we can't race again. Of course we couldn't race last year. I get that BUT it doesn't mean I won't be majorly disappointed if it happens again. Have my fingers crossed ![](https://beginnertriathlete.com/discussion/images/emoticons/smile.gif) I know my husband and I won't come back for a 3rd try so hopefully the fire and smoke will settle once we get closer to race day. Happy Training! |
