#4884 Tug
Mizz good to hear from you!
If I can get thru on the 13th on-line I'm hoping to do IMWisconsin. I have not really paid attention to IMTexas, when is that one that you are doing? Is there any other 'gold' members doing Texas too? Ask Mr. Mizz how he thinks his Chiefs will do this year. Happy training! |
|
#4883 Mizz
Tug - I'm doing Texas next year. What did you decide to do?
|
|
#4882 Tug
Mizz are you going to try IMLouisville next year?

#4881 Mizz
You might be able to sign up online. Just be ready as soon as registration opens up. If you don't get in, there are always community spots..you have to pay an extra $500..but you'd spend that in travel expenses to get to Arizona. You might like IM CdA..it would be pretty close to you. It is a very pretty venue. The folks of Couer D'Alene really support the athletes.

#4880 Jeff Subject: IMAZ online registering?
Hi everyone,
My name is Jeff, I am from Edmonton, Alberta and looking to do my first Ironman. I have the exact same question as Patrick. I can not make the race this year to sign up. Were any of this year's athletes online registrants? Any info would be great! Thanks |
|
#4879 Tug
Patrick if you are looking for a change of scenery try ironman St. George instead of IMAZ.
IMAZ is a nice venue, but there isn't all that much to look at other than cactus'. IMSt. George on the other hand has hills, red mountains, hills wide open scenery, hills, gambling 30 min. down the road and did I mention HILLS? Good luck if you enter IMAZ, St. George is still OPEN. |

Hi All,
My name is Patrick and I am from Kamloops British Columbia Canada. I have done Ironman Canada 4 times ( 03,05,07,09) and am looking for a change of scenery. I hope to register for IM Arizona and am wondering what my chances of registering online are? Any info would be good. The organizers are encouraging me to sign up in person but I may not be able to. All the best, and good luck to anyone who is coming to Canada/Penticton for IMC this wekend. |

#4872 flyboy Subject: Congrats and sadness
Way to go Gordy, sounds like it was a tough day out there, well done.
Tribabe, glad to hear that you are feeling better and recovering. Rest up and get ready to fight another day. flydaughter had league finals swim meet today, she's feeling somewhat under the weather and her race times suffered for it. We're proud of her for getting there and toughing it out, from the way it looks right now she too will have to try again next year to qualify for championships. |

#4871 JennyLou Subject: Boulder 70/3
It was good to see Tribabe and Gordy today.
Tribabe had a bit of Altitude while in the swim. Very common when swimming at such elevation. She is recovering well and I left her when she could eat and drink again. Gordy... he had a HOT day! The sun is relentless and the run had no shade. I'm sure he will want to tell you about it. But I am proud of him for finishing! My volunteer duties.. An run aide station. It was lovely! I do so love the Ironman community! Happy Sunday |

#4870 RB
Gordius Maximus is in!

#4869 Mizz

#4865 JennyLou Subject: Hi.. BIG WAVE
Hey There!
My PC crashed about two months ago now.. and I am slowly putting things back together as well as travelling an awful lot. Glad to hear the racing continues!! I'm here in CO now and am hoping to see Boulder racers this weekend. I plan to make it down for IMAZ this year as well. Tug: I raced IMMOO '09.. It is a fabulous venue! The best Fan support ever! You seriously feel like you're on the Tour when you're on the BIG hills on the bike. AND.. the run course goes through the university. It is a beautiful finish! ENJOY! I'm tossing around an IM next year... have heard some friends are signing up for IMAZ. Miss you and Love you, Jen PS.. Sounds like the "lake" in Tempe will be filled by Nov 1st |

#4863 Tug
I've been away from the page for awhile & poked my head in and saw the great results from my friends still racing this summer.
Runner girl & Twister GREAT job. I hope you had fun in your quest to reach the finish line too! CONGRADULATIONS!! Mizz a nice great finish at IMUT and now a podium finish to your season? What's next....? GREAT JOB!! BT sounds like your sprint went very well congrats to you too!! Can't believe it was three months ago when we met at RR in St. George. Hope everyone is well. |

#4862 bt
Super congrats to Mizz on the podium!
Congrats to the California ladies--RG and Twister-- as well! Some friends of mine were there. Such a great venue and I'm glad you had success! I'm just back from a local sprint. Decent swim, super fast transitions, strong bike...and then there's that pesky run of suckage. It was about 93 when I was done. I'm not acclimated. But I had fun and it's good to get out and race. |
|
#4861 flyboy Subject: Mizz on the Podium
Congratulations Mizz,
RG just told me that you were racing yesterday too. Way to go speedy!!!! RG and Twister are heading home today, RG will make a stop just outside of Oakland to see her cousin and be home tonight some time, Twister is taking a couple of days with her family at Pismo Beach to Rest and Recuperate. |

#4860 RB
Mizz on the podium!

#4856 flyboy Subject: Barb's race
The athlete tracker had some major glitches, but seems to be working now. Earlier it had gaps of nearly an hour between some finishers. The ladies have finished and are back at their respective hotels. Runnergirl went 7:41 and change, Twister went 7:23. I've talked to Runnergirl and Twister's husband so all is well. It sounds like it was a long day that included at least some walking on RG's part but as we all know it is about making it to the starting line, everything after that is just gravy. Well done girls, I wish that I could have been up there to cheer and volunteer.
Mizz, thanks as always for your support and concern. |

#4855 Mizz
Flyboy - I have been looking for results, updates and can't get anything...hope the girls are doing well and having fun!!!

#4854 flyboy Subject: Barb's race athlete tracking
Hey everyone,
Runnergirl and Twister are doing Barb's race right now, but I can't get the athlete tracker to work. When I try to use it the J-Chip page just shows a few results and won't let me track any individuals. I've signed up for e-mail alerts but haven't received anything there either. Anyone else able to figure this out? |

#4842 sue
great question, Newbie. I read about the leak in the dam and wondered about the options for the race. The leak is in the bladder(s)? if so, I would think they could repair that...but re-filling the "lake" is another issue. I know there are bodies of water in the area...but, as far as I know, nothing close to start/finish/transition. I hope they fix the leak and refill the ditch soon!
|
|
#4841 Newbie Subject: IMAZ swim
Does anyone know of any alternate sites for the IMAZ swim or what they can do if the lake isn't back up in time? I don't want to do a duathlon!
