That's a race that I'd love to do. So many cool places to go, so little time and money.

Thank you for posting the RR. Gratz on the PR.

...and I can't truly explain how "wunderbar" it really was! The Europeans live for this stuff. I haven't done an IM in the US, but it would take a lot to beat the enthusiasm the Europeans bring to the sport.

Thanks for the congrats :)

Vielen Dank, Anton! Ich plane, der Kettle Morraine 100 nächster Juni zu laufen! Und du?

Thanks TriGuy...hopefully I'll see you out in the San Ann hills soon.

Go for it Ironmom! IMS was my favorite out of IM Germany and IM Austria. The bike course was perfect for me...flats, climbs, downhills and rollers. Just right!

You're not just a Star...you are a SUPER STAR! I've already said it, but will do so publicly here -- awesome performance! Watching your splits that day was just unreal.

It's been over a week now, any decision on next destination IM? :-)

I am out here on Sundays and Tuesdays. My route is a bit odd leaving from Dade City, but maybe we'll cross paths.

I will be at Flatwoods on some Monday mornings, and Friday evenings.

So what is next for you?
