Just the 2 of us?? :eek:

I'm considering it... for my IM another season! ;)
G'luck to you guys. You'll have to update with your numbers once you have 'em so we can stalk - I mean follow - you online.

Hey I go with things I'm good at...

But I think you should post it so that you can gain energy through our cheering and jeers!
Next up for racing: RSS feeds of trifuel forums to cell phone... so as you race you can read what we write about the race! ;)

Yeah... that's true. Like the "positive thinking" part! :p Would you want your girls to see this kind of talk?!?!

I think that you are stuck as a good example in just doing it, and in those 2.5 years of training. Even the last finisher showed more heart/strength/guts/determination than the first DNF'er.

Just think, instead of running for those 20 min, you could have turned to many other less stressful methods of stress relief (drugs and heavy drinking come to mind)

Well at least temporarily relieve it... or think you have... so I've heard.

Healthy is a good thing to be addicted to. Except when work gets in the way ;-)

I am doing IM FL. It is my first IM. I will be down there the Monday before the race to get aclamated. It's also a little bit of a real vacation for me.

Any of you want to get together? I am staying about three miles north of the start on the beach.

I haven't got my room yet but I was thinking about a Scottish inn.
It is about 5 miles away across the bridge.

It was about $45 a night. How were the rates you guys got?

I will be there on Thursday. I am driving down from NJ Wednesday.
I am up for meeting up. :cool:

Riverbrady- Do you have more info on the place you are staying? a link or phone number?

$40 and a mile away is better than $45 and 5 miles away.

Thanks for the info dude!!

I hope it isn't to much of a dive but for $40 it can't be too bad.

They only have a couple of $50 rooms left. They are doubles.

I had them hold it for me.

Should be cool.

A hotel full of Triathletes, :eek:

On Friday we'll get all crazy on gatorade and pasta and party until 7:30 pm. :D

Just checked the IM website and they have my bib # 872

I’m excited for you all and a little jealous. I have 8 months to wait before my first full IM at CDA. Hope you all have a fun race!

Oh (whining) you guys are so lucky. I am ready to do another IM. Wish I had the $ to do this one.
All the best,
BBB

No no no no no no. I will be doing IMC IF I qualify. I didn't have the $ after the race this year to be able to register. Wish my pathetic ass luck.
BBB

Good luck to you guys and gals doing IMFL on Nov 5th, I will be attempting to register on-line the day after.......and then hopefully after getting an entry picking everyones brains for the next year!!!!

Note to self...bring camera and notepad on the bike and run... ;)

I am actually planning to have a disposable camera with me the whole time.
Waterproof one for the swim of course.
One in my Bento Box or I might velcro it right to my bike frame.
One in my fuel belt for the run.

I will be quite the tourista :D

Remember the Song?

Don't worry I am a trained professional. I'll only show the good pictures ;-)

Yikes!!!

Tapering is going well. I have been doing some easier workouts and less time on them.

Eating good, taking my vitamins and trying to get some extra rest when I can.

I am getting my packing list together and making sure I have everything I need.

We'll see if everything works in a week and a half. :D

forgot to post cell - 2024235333.

Learn - what's your bib number so we can track you as well?

we should find out when he is driving and set up a schedule so he gets calls every hour to help him keep awake and as sane as he is.
