Eyeing IM Louisville 2010, any thoughts?
So since this is a bit of a lull in tri-season my hubby and I are taking the time to spread out our hopes/calendar for upcoming races.
We'd really like to do the Louisville IM in 2010, but I've got a few questions.
I just started doing triathlons this summer and stuck to sprint distances.
The plan is to start off with a full marathon & sprint tri in May and then work our way up to Olympic distances mid-season and then (hopefully) finish off with a HIM. We'd also like to volunteer for a full IM somewhere in there.
Is it reasonable to think that we could build up the base we need to do a full IM in 2010?
Are we insane to compete in the same IM?
I know if one of us competed and the other didn't that the one being the support crew would wish they were out there racing, but I'm a bit worried about us both being fried and without much of a support group.
Those of you that did the IM Louisville, would you suggest doing your first Im there?
Thanks for your input! It's appreciated as always. :D
