What do ya think? I paid 500 dollars for this Mylar wristband. Pretty snappy I'd say. The only cool thing is that it entitles you to walk around and talk smart with all of the other athletes. Yea, I'm one of them crazy Ironman people. It sucks to be there and know that I should be doing this race. Tonight I'm going to go drive around some country roads and look for a deer to run over.
It's fun to be at the race. The swim course looked awesome today! The water was calm and there are tons of people out in the water. Tomorrow is bike porn day. I get to walk around and ogle all of the hot sexy bikes.
Oh this wristband also entitles you to sign up for 2009 on Saturday. Not that I intend to use it for that. I'm just enjoying talking smart and race strategy.
Good luck to all of those who are racing on Sunday. Wait until after 8:00 to finish and I can hang your medal around your head. Most of all have fun and enjoy your day. You've earned it!
Pony-Tail Guy approach. Really. If the registration fee is in reach for you, consider tackling the course next year.
ReplyDeleteOK, you may not be motivated tomorrow to sign up. Volunteers can sign up early Monday, IIRC. It's possible that after the event you'll feel the pull to sign up. Don't rule that out yet!
Thanks for looking after the peeps this year. You're part of a lot of people realizing dreams.
It's a deal! I'll be coming through around 10/10:30 I think. #51.
ReplyDeleteYour crack about running over a deer made me snort coffee. Hang in there - you are going to come back stronger than ever. That crash was serious and it's important to devote the time now to fully recover (and get a hot new bike). Hope to see you Sunday!
I still have my $500 mylar wristband from IMAZ. I wore it for weeks!
ReplyDeleteahhhhhhhuhu. Tac lost your number. Call jumper and I when you can!

I saved my band too. In fact, it's taped to the top of my monitor.
ReplyDeleteToo bad about tomorrow. If I see a deer on my next run I will cane it for you.
ReplyDeleteHoly crap that deer comment made me spit out my coffee - heard we missed you at the finish line but Clyde said you were there. Been reading about the accident and man, that sucks, but you dont meed me to tell you that.
ReplyDeletep.s. i didnt take my bracelet off for almost two weeks after the race. and i still have it.
