Ironman 2018 - PE

I remember from last time that it's probably like 30 minutes until you actually get your street cloths bag and the warms stuff in there on.  I recall having a cooldrink, then pictures then then.  All on adrenaline probably.  Nice to put the thing on just after crossing the line.

My first time doing IM, but I plan to buy a long sleeve T from Ackermans/Mr P/Jet and put it in my run bag.  90% chance I'll need it on the run, but if not then IM will donate it to someone who really needs it on a daily basis

Exactly what I always do. Either that or take one of your old long sleeves that your wife is threatening to donate anyway...

Thanks for this suggestion that I now use, except I add butter and peanut butter to mine for a bit of an extra kick.  

 

I don't like the idea of meat sitting in a plastic bag in the sun for a day before i get to eat it!

#808 for me

 

First full IM, had a few issues just before 70.3 EL with a big toe injury but it is feeling better the last two months. Thank for all the advice and tips, answered a few of my questions that i still had leading up to the event. Feeling excited and Sh!+ scared at the same time haha

 

Anyone else here attempting to complete all 3 races in one year?

It’s meant to have been resurfaced for years now. I think it was a lil resurfaced for last year an nothing more. So expect the same. But no biggie.

Did it last year-keeps you focused and training and you get that big ass medal and that's about it -no singing dancing cheering happening. But then again we do it for ourselves
