@Shana - Ask on the 2012 board. There might be someone there who has space. I myself am mooching off someone. ;)

I was suppose to see the show tonight at my inlaws but as it turns out they had a dvr malfunction. OUCH! I just checked the schedule and it looks like it is going to be on again on Monday. I think I'll go over there and watch it "live" this time.
Darn you directtv for not having the channel!

Robert - I was coming here to give Michael a shout out too :) And thanks to you for pointing me in the right direction for the channel! So cool to watch - they missed me by seconds - i was the official last finisher of the day! Not what I had planned but...I still finished.
On another note: does anybody have a spare room reserved at the Woodlands for next year?? WANT. NEED. ROOM. :D

Michael Simpson, you are a rock star! Michael's amazing finish at IM Texas was shown near the end of the broadcast on Universal Sports.

Reposting this from a couple of days ago... For those interested, Universal Sports is airing the 2011 Ironman Texas at 6:00 p.m. EST on Monday, June 20 (and probably a few more times after that, but I didn't look). If you want to look at their TV listings for each day (they show quite a few Ironman races), here's the link... http://www.universalsports.com/tv-listings/index.html

That participant list is old; I'm still not on it and I registered a while ago. I wouldn't put much too much faith in it.

Shana-I'm wondering the same thing...

Shana, thanks for looking. That has become a traditional picture for me as I now have one for all 3 IMs I've done. I seem to end up hugging my wife and crying after i cross the line.

Well - you could copy the list of those that have already registered into an excel spreadsheet to see how many are currently listed...then make an assumption that 2500 - 3000 will be the limit.

Shana, I have Comcast (basic cable) and their digital channel on my set is 319-1.
I have no idea how close IM Texas is to filling up, nor am I sure how you might find out.
