Having done a few Olympic-distance races, I’v decided to upgrade this year to half IM. I plan on doing the Montauk MightyMan race in early October. Anyway, if I enjoy that as much as I’ve my previous Olympic-distance races, I’ll probably want to shoot for the full monty next year (2006). Does anyone out there have an opinion on a race (or races) that would qualify as a good “first ironman”?
Tons of threads have been posted on this subject check out the archives. I think there have been a couple of these threads in the last month even.
Now to completely hijack this thread…
Your User Name “Konaby2008” has piqued my interest. Is Kona by 2008 a goal? A vacation? or some other meaning?
The obvious answer would be that you plan on doing Kona by 2008. The unobvious part is how you pln on getting there or know you can do it…
Just curious.

I sent you a private message with the story so that I do not hijack the thread.
awwww… c’mon… we’re all curious now!!! I’m guessing you did Kona under race number 2008 maybe?
Goal to get there by the year 2008.
