Ironman USA Lake Placid (Page 20)

Alright, everyone. This is it. I'm heading up there shortly and will no longer have Internet access.

I don't think I'll be joining you on Thursday (but I know where you are if I change my mind). I will be at the swim on Friday AM. Still not sure about dinner on Friday PM. It's nothing against you guys, I am just not very social in the days before a big race. Very anxious right now. ahhhh.

Safe travels, everyone!

My last day of prepping and packing and we'll be on the road tomorrow morning!

Safe travels everyone, see you all there!

Safe travels everyone..we are leaving in a few minutes..traveling for a week with 6 plus having all the stuff for IM is challenging packing.

See you guys...going to be a blast 

Safe Travels to all of those already on thier way!!  I am leaving tomorrow and I am NOT freaking out that my wetsuit ripped, was sent in for repair and will be delivered to my local tri shop AFTER my plane departs...  NOT freaking out...  A new wetsuit is fine for your first IM - RIGHT?!

I am recovering from another 24 hour shift at the hospital yesterday.  I managed about 4 hours of sleep when I got out of work at 7am today, then got myself packed as much as possible tonight.

I have to work 12 hours tomorrow (Thurs) and then will drive out after work.  I probably wont get into LP until after midnight Friday morning, so I will miss the thur dinner, but will try to get out to the lake, red eyes and all, on friday at 830.  See you all there.

I'm at the Crowne Plaze, where are you at? No tour here either.  I did see a sign for a bike shop that has it on  .

Going to head to the lake at 8:30 this am for a swim!

Have a great swim guys! I'm here, too (as always) but I'M AT WORK! Boss was on vacation all week so I hoped I could rearrange my morning for a good swim BUT guess who showed up?? Oh well.....I'm fighting some kind of cruddy virus anyway. Probably need to rest.

 I would imagine Kenny at Placid Planet (bike shop up the hill off Main Street, and then down the hill on left) would have the Tour playing.

 I speak for myself when I say I am not a Barbarian!

Just another doping scandal. You're not missing much. Plus there's really only one race that matters this weekend

Heading up later. See you tomorrow.

Of course I know, silly!!!!

and believe me, I was only speaking for myself---- cause we have our fair share of barbarians up here!!!!!!!!!!! lol

Great to meet so many BTers already this morning. I think we will see many more of you Thursday.

Sounds like a great group will be able to meet for dinner tonight at 4:30 at the Mexican place.

It is great up here...water is nice and cooler than where I live. My swim went great for me...happy pike day
