    Thanks everyone! Looking forward to it! Did my first half ironman last year and this will be my first full. Definetely going to be tough and I am not going for any spectacular time just going to finish. Hope to be right around 13 hours! Anyone from Louisville gonna be at the race that weekend let me know!

    Hey Ferg good luck. Also could you activate the live from the Ironman thread so we know how the day is shaping up.
