I completed my first IM a couple of weeks ago and it was all that I hoped it would be. I didn't register for next year's race (mostly family pressure not to) and now find that I am in such a funk - mentally and physically - that I am considering a foundation slot just to do it again. Am I crazy or will this pass? Other than the cost, is a foundation slot the same as a normal registration?

What you're experiencing is very common. Google "post ironman depression" to see a ton of links. Bottom line, though, is it will pass.

That was me last year and I signed up through the foundation.
This year I was smart and got a general entry spot.

Just finished my first two weeks ago as well but am not experiencing anything like that. I think I may have, but I decided I am going to race it again in two years and I sat down, made a tentative race schedule for next season and set some lofty goals for the next IM. Decided to take two weeks almost completly off and am now ready to get back at it. Don't know if doing anything like that would help ya...
