It's STILL not time? I thought you were only one hour behind us. I went to the site and it let me enter all my information (I stopped right before entering the credit card info). I would like to do it, but just don't think this year is the year. I need to get far stronger on my bike before I tackle the next IM. I'd love to do a 6.5 hour bike- and that means dropping 1.5 hours off my last bike time. 2 years will give me plenty of time to do that.

Wow- how nice of him. He just wants to do the IM without putting forth the effort. The only free rides on race day are for the bugs in my teeth/hair. Tell him you'll drag him in the kayak and in the bike trailer if he'll carry you piggyback on the run.
