Ironman seems to be handing out 70.3's left and right. The Seatle area has been clamoring for one for years and it seems they are finally getting one.  A local town council meeting authorized "Ironman 70.3 Washington-Maple Valley."  This event has not yet been announced.

Earlier this year, Memphis and Des Moines were among the cities bidding for the full distance event that Tulsa got  Des Moines got a 70.3 out of the deal and it sounds like Memphis will as well.  This event has not yet been announced.

I think that Fayetteville, Arkansas was also going for that Tulsa 140.6 slot. I wonder if they will get a 70.3 as well?

Ahhh.... On the heels of the discount codes conversation, I was reading this as "you got an Ironman" for free. My brain is a scary place sometimes.

I'm having sync issues today. Stuff is not automatically coming over from Garmin and manual upload is not working for me at the moment either.  I get the "Oops. Something went wrong. Please contact [email protected] and we'll get right on it."

Might be interested in the latter if I can figure out where Maple Valley is.... Since Lake Stevens stopped, there haven't been any IM races within an easy day's drive. (CDA is a very LONG day's drive from here; actually even from Boise due to the mountain roads.)

Not too far from Auburn or Renton (about 12 miles east from either).  I've done a standard distance in the area and it was a nice route. Would love to see a 70.3 there!

Yep there was some security issue last week -  I got the same messages. I DM'd BT on Facebook but whoever reads those never replied (it showed it was read though). Then it was fixed. Then Garmin data was not syncing over the weekend - well it did for some workouts but not others. Then I had double syncs on a few workouts when I logged on this morning - and for some that didn't even have issues.

I received a note this morning about backlogged uploads and changing to a new server. I wonder if the security warning that you bumped into last week was because the certificate wasn't on the server that you were talking to, so to speak.

I did not know about this. We may need to have Melanie do some recon (it's not that close to Mel, it's north of Harrisburg by quite a bit -- but it's way closer to her than it is to me!)-- and then we'll all need gravel bikes

Hellloooo, Manatees!
After Miami and some adventures in Orlando, I was down with the flu for a few days. Today is my first day back at work.
I owe some race reports for sure, but the tl;dr is that I got to stand on two podiums, and of course I cried because it was amazing.

Eh, Lewisburg is less than a 2 hour drive from me.  I'd be willing to do some recon and may likely have friends who have ridden in that area that I can question.  That sounds like a fun and pretty ride!

ETA: "

The Start & Finish are in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania—a college town filled with warmth, charm, tasty grub and cold brews.

Route includes:
Buffalo Valley Rail Trail - "The Gateway to a Gravel Mine" will lead you out of Lewisburg, and back to town again.
Bald Eagle State Forest - Big, raw roads take you over relentlessly rolling hills, along running waters and through gorgeous, old woods.
Amish Country - Connecting roads into civilization that's measured in horse power, not cell coverage."

Well, if we must

We may need time to get gravel-ready ;-)

I'm not gonna ask you two to do any recon unless we can make it a Manatee Meetup.

And... Memphis on October 3rd.  At 11 hours away, not really interested.

Wow, they just keep coming!  And saying no to a race 11 hours away?  Pffft.    Some fools sign up for such things to race with podmates.

That fool is me/Chatt, just in case anyone thought otherwise.

I realize that but I'd have to drive PAST Chattanooga to get there. So just to the Choo, right? ;-).  Now if a meetup were involved...

The EX2 gravel race looks amazing. That group puts on some great events. I have an aunt who lives in Maryland, so a few years back I drove my Mom out east to visit her and did EX2's Xterra in Cumberland. Had the best time getting my butt kicked.
