IMC 2010?
who's going this year?
(I know I asked this last year with the idea of coming out for it, and then I didn't go... we'll try again this year. ;)

Re: IMC 2010?
I normally go every year..but whether or not I go will depend on when we are leaving for my sister's wedding. I may end up in Penticton earlier in the summer. I'll know closer to the time
Re: IMC 2010?
I was thinking of trying to volunteer. When do you have to sign up to do that?
It will partly depend on our vacation schedule, though.

Re: IMC 2010?
I don't want to sign up to volunteer since I don't want to commit this early (maybe closer to the date) but I have a friend from here who is doing the race so I thought I might go out and cheer, visit my grandparents, and see whoever else is going to be there. :)

Re: IMC 2010?
There is a very small chance I'll go out there this year. Whether I do or don't get out there, I'm definitely going to [try to] register for 2011. There, I said it.
Re: IMC 2010?
I plan to go to IMC and volunteer and register for 2011.
I will probably drive out Friday, home Monday.

Ooooh... fun, Seuss! Did you already reserve a campsite? I guess the BC Parks ones will take reservations at the end of this month.
Something to think about...

yes - we will be at Wright's Beach Campground - it's private, not provincial.

Heather just booked the camp site and we're bringing Bostie now and no bikes. It'll be a run/swim team duster training camp. You're welcome to join us, even on short notice. We are going up Friday afternoon, returning Monday afternoon. There will be wine.
Good to know that volunteer registration just opened, Suess, since I signed up yesterday and chose the "popular" slots maybe I'll actually get one. I'm also volunteering at IM Cozumel this winter.
I'm know I'm registering for IMC 2011, but I still can't decide if my goal time should be 10:43:16.3 or 11:00:16.3.

Re: IMC 2010?
I'm looking for someone to share a ride to IMC with. Similar to what gjennifer and I did in 2006 drive all night Friday and come home on MOnday. I don't think my van will make the trip so I'm wondering if anyone from Edmonton area is going, looking to rideshare, please pm me. Thx

Re: IMC 2010?
I believe triprincess was thinking about going.
If all that you read is everything you believe then let go, then let go, then let go.
Nothing will change if you never choose.

I've decided not to sign up for the a Ironman next year. Instead I'll continue working on my bike fitness and Heather and I both plan to try and qualify for Clearwater and race there in 2011. Of course this is all plan B, and assumes plan A doesn't come to fruition... plan A is Heather gets a Kona Slot at IM Cozumel and I get to tag along as Sherpa. I am really starting to enjoy the training for half Ironman, moreso than the highvolume/low intensity training for full Ironman or marathon running.

I am considering it and seeing how it fits in with family plans. Were you thinking of going, too, Colleen?

Re: IMC 2010?
my plans have changed thanks to my DH and my tri-DH (Farmgirl's DH) getting IMC spots at Osoyoos. Thus, they're on the 7 week training plan for IM.
Driving out on Thurs, back on Mon.

Re: IMC 2010?
I am still going although I have now decided to fly out Thursday night and home Monday night. I signed up to volunteer but I still havent heard anything back despite contacting the volunteer coordinator a second time!
