I had the pleasure of doing this race myself and know first hand how well organized it is. It's no wonder that many triathletes return year after year.
I have hopes of being there Saturday afternoon doing book signings for "Ironstruck...The Ironman Triathlon Journey" and "Ironstruck? 500 Ironman Triathlon Questions." I may also stay overnight and be at around the finish area somewhere, but might have to drive to the next town as accommodations around Stoney Plain will be full. Work committments have been getting in the way of knowing exactly what I will be doing this weekend. Also have to try and get a hold of Wade, but he will be tied up all night tonight with the carbo banquet.
Best of luck to all the triathletes who will be taking to the water in less than 48 hours.
May the water be warm and may the wind be always at your back......(but don't count on it).
