Only an idiot goes to Louisville in August. We talked to several locals here and everybody just laughed at the thought.

Louisville is a newbie race with no history. Talk to me when Louisville has twenty years of Ironman history, like Canada, Kona or NZ. The best Ironman races in North America are Canada, Lake Placid, Wisconsin, with Couer-d'Alene being an up and comer. Arizona is okay and Florida produces fast times. Louisville hasn't really be received well ---- yet. It has muggy, hot temperatures. I'll research the course. |
Lubbock is flat and dry, I take it. Ideal for fast times.
Otherwise an awful place. |

I'm not, but I'm going to start training on Monday for my first Ironman...two years from now. My buddy and I are trying to decide between Coeur d'Alene or Tempe in 2010. My plan is to train over the winter and do a few sprint and Olympic tris next year, and maybe the 70.3 in Boise. Then take a shot at the full a year later.
I signed up for swimming lessons starting next week, I've got to get better before I even attempt an open water swim. |
