BTW, for those who have never read this short piece on "The Strugglers," here's some great inspiration (written by BTer and Bikesport Michigan guru Tom Demerly): http://www.whenbigboystri.com/Strugglers.htmThanks, Tom. Great writing.Well, if you classify yourself slow at 6:30, then what it the word for 7:24 which was my time last year? Can I join this thread? I feel like I am missing out on the party. I will never forget the anticipation that I had the few days prior. Work was a joke as I checked the weather and this board every 10 minutes (vs. ever hour or so now) Yeah, Xan, way to insult me too |

Off course, I don't plan on being in the struggle category this year, since I've gone from 284 last years HIM to 237 for this years. Should make a difference. Happy racing. |

New user 44 | Subject: RE: Ford Ironman 70.3 California - 2008 Stupid question......is anyone going to bring a pump to the transition area? I know they will have them there but wasn't sure about the routine. My thought was to just pump it at my car and count on it being fine for 2+ hours until the bike. Any thoughts? |

Expert 626 Las Vegas, NV | Subject: RE: Ford Ironman 70.3 California - 2008 I usually do a pump when I get from my vehicle to T1. If needed later, use their assistance. Have a great race |

The race course is no longer going to run via the sand (which was PERFECT for the sign holders), and now it is following the road route (YAY--this is better for the athletes!) We need empty, disposable containers to fill with sand! If you have something that will work, please bring it along with you on Saturday! Good luck out there everyone  I love you!  |

| Expert 851 Oceanside, CA | Subject: RE: Ford Ironman 70.3 California - 2008 Hey guys and gals! I'm working registration. When I left tonight at 8, there were approx 700 of the 2500 registered racers that had been in to get their packages, which means tomorrow we're going to be stupid busy in registration I'll be there tomorrow from the time they open until they close and I'll be working the Hot Spot with Dan bright and early Saturday morning. I'll be out there screaming and hollering for you all! I'll probably see you at 6 p.m. too. |

| Champion 5345 Carlsbad, California | Subject: RE: Ford Ironman 70.3 California - 2008 Yup, I am in for next year I will be using IMCal as a substitute for my last long run in my marathon training for Boston. So it is not really a tuneup race as it is a nice way to kick off a 3 week marathon taper. Hope to see everyone there next year and Paul, Lobby at 4:45 on Satuday |
