IM registered..................

It is done. I am registered to start the Ironman UK on August 19, 2007.

I was surfing the other night before bed and noticed that the IMUK site had been updated and showed the '07 date with new graphics while I was searching for info. They had yet to make any announcements about next years race, and I was nervous to find out when the application started. I did not want to get shut out again.

I sat up most of the night and got poor sleep. I was very anxious to get word about the race entry.

At 4:30am I got up checked again....Nothing new. I went to work.

When I got home at 4pm the site had announced registration began on Monday.

Will this race sell out so quickly as they had in Lake Placid and Wisconsin?. I check my email.

"Ironman UK pre registration" is the headline. I was being given the ability to sign up early because of a form I filled out a week ago.

So at midnight I signed up.

I am headed to Sherbourn Castle next August to race the Ironman(140 miles triathlon)

Let the journey officially begin
