I agree that it is a half which is why I said 70.3 and not just Ironman. If I can figure out how to go back and edit my first post I will.
Anyway, looks like the trip is coming together. A buddy from work is going to join and his brother lives 15 minutes west of Boulder so we have a tour guide and even a place to crash! Thanks again for all the great advice.

Re: First Trip Planning
Thanks, very big of you, you are clearly not THAT guy if you apologize. Most of those people don't know that word exists. I have read some stories about how 140.6 people feel about 70.3 people getting the Ironman tattoo (I do NOT have one) so I understand how the 140.6 crowd feels. Heck, if I ever complete a 140.6 I might just be on the front lawn with you telling those 703er's to get off our lawnSean Nunn wrote:Sorry, I wasn't trying to be a jerk, but it probably came off that way.
