I wish I was ready to commit to that. It sounds like an awesome weekend, but I just can't say what the cards hold for my future of racing until after IMC. Of course, there is the distinct possibility that I will finish IMC and regret not signing up for some things for next year. Where is my psychic when I need her?

You should do it! That way I'll have you to bug again next year. :) I'll be registering for my 4th year. I love this thing. So I hope you do come on down to Southern Ohio.

Chris - I see you are doing these still this year:
Aug: Great Buckeye 1/2 Iron
Sept: Toyota Challenge 1/2 Iron
I'm definitely going to be at Great Buckeye, and maybe the other. Maybe I'll meet you there.

A weekend of 4 triathlons -- a super sprint on Friday, 2 Olympics on Saturday, and a HIM on Sunday. All bike and run courses are hilly!

Is it really just $200 for all 4 events? Damn, that's a HUGE bargain. Maybe in 2010 for me.

I'm trying to get in using my 2008 registration that I had to back out of. They told me I could use it in 2009, so I sent them an e-mail asking how I go about doing it. So, barring some changing of the rules over the last couple of months, then I'll be in for 2009 as well.

Could you do a short explanation of how the team thing works? I did read your race report from this year's race back after the race, but I just can't figure out when you work together, if they combine all times, etc. I couldn't find the info on how the teams work on their site, so if I'm just missing it please just direct me there :)

Race 1- super sprint. Individual race- combined times
Race 2- Individual Oly- times are combined
Race 3- Team Oly- Drafting allowed, time is the slowest member's chip time
Race 4- Team 1/2 IM- Drafting allowed- must finish together
So there ends up being 6 times that are added. Both member's first 2 races, then one time for the team races. It's a ton of fun!

I am almost ready to take the plunge for round 2. i do already have a room reserved at the lodge. The only thing holding me back is the long drive to and from the race. I hate to drive.

I entered as well. I looked at last year's race results and only saw one female in the grand masters category. Ha ha. Guess I should do okay.

Cat - the 'rumor' is that the team event is possibly more difficult than solo (I've heard more than one person say this). Basically team or solo, you do the entire course. It's not a relay. The increased difficulty comes from the fact that if you're the less-prepared team-member, you end up pushing yourself harder to keep up with your partner, hence the increased difficulty. Again, I've only done the race once as a solo, but a few folks I've talked to who have teamed said it was harder in some ways.
No matter what you decide to do, the weekend will kick your ass, and you'll love every minute of it!!

I think 2010 for me - as tempting as it is, reality - I am in my first season and this year Olympic is my longest distance - will do a HIM next summer, but not sure I could handle TTT yet....but I will get there!!!

Well it was decided and I have officially registered, I will be back in sunny Ohio for round 2 at the American Triple T next May. Regsitration is still open, any other takers??
I would LOVE to do it, but I don't think it's financially feasible. Maybe one year when I'm not doing an IM.
