Comment by Lorie Dixon on March 4, 2012 at 1:32pm: @Stuart ~ I was a marathoner turned triathlon-er. Will never turn back! You will love the sport!

Comment by Stuart (Quadrathon) on March 4, 2012 at 11:02am: Just joined the group, Hi! I come from a pretty solid running background; marathon's and even a few ultras. I got convinced to try Tri's this year and was told IMAZ was a good place to start...here goes!

Comment by Ron Hill on February 22, 2012 at 12:45pm: @Kevin, there a few rides in Tucson that mimic the IMAZ course. Roughly same distance and grade changes, just a bit more elevation changes along the way. I should be available on the 11th if you can't make it to Phoenix. Ron

Comment by Thomas OReilly on February 19, 2012 at 8:36pm: Kevin, I live in the Phoenix area and just rode the IMAZ bike course today. I would be up for a ride on March 11th. I have another buddy that could join us. Talk to you soon, Thomas

Comment by Kevin McDonald on February 19, 2012 at 4:56pm: Heading down to Tucson (from Canada) for a week of training in March.....anyone up for a loop around the IMAZ course - either March 11th or 12th??

Comment by Lorie Dixon on February 14, 2012 at 12:45pm: Happy Valentines Day Ironman - I love you and will be dedicating 2012 to you, again. <3

Comment by Thomas OReilly on February 11, 2012 at 1:40pm: Since the weather is awesome in AZ right now. Thinking about hitting the IMAZ bike course next Sunday, Feb 19th @ 7:00AM. Meeting up at the So. End of Vista Del Camino Park - on McKellips and Hayden. Nice parking lot and easy access to a good run path after the bike. Planning one hitting one loop of the bike course with a short run afterwards. If you live in the PHX area, and want to meet up - let me know. So far, I have 2 others joining me.

Comment by Bill Percival on January 27, 2012 at 9:52am: I am going to do Charleston (SC) H.I.M. at the end of April. I was going to do Augusta (GA) but WDW added a Tower of Terror 10 miler race that I am going to do to add to my finishers medal collection (Already have an Augusta medal). I hope to add 2 or 3 century rides this summer.
