Kona, here I come!

Well, it's official.  I'm going to Kona, Hawaii this Oct. for 2 weeks for the 2008 Ford Ironman World Championships!  And I get to go to the following races as well, so here are the travel dates:

Aug. 31- Louisville, KY Ironman (leave on the 25th, return on the 1st)
Sept. 7- Seattle, WA Iron Girl 10k/5k (leave on the 5th, return on the 8th)
Sept. 21- Bloomington, MN Iron Girl Duathlon (leave on the 19th, return on the 21st)
Oct. 11- Kona, Hawaii Ironman World Championship (leave on the 2nd, return on the 14th)
Nov. 8- Clearwater, FL 2008 Foster Grant 70.3 World Championship

I'm most likely put up a post-trip recap when I return from each trip.

So, I'm psyched about all of the traveling I'll be doing here soon.  Aside from work I've been really training hard, as I have my first race in over 3 months.  I'm suffering from withdrawal.  I'll be doing a sprint triathlon in Tarpon Springs on Aug. 9th and then hitting it hard for the Longleaf Olympic Triathlon in New Port Richey on Oct. 19th, where I'll try to redeem myself from Collegiate Nationals.

So, those are the updates.  Everything is going great, and I'm still enjoying every minute of it.
