The team has arrived in Lake Placid.

John, Dan, Lorraine, and I, along with 25 of our North-bay teammates have gathered at the Comfort Inn, Lake Placid

Thunderstorms shut down Chicago’s airports and snarled air travel all acorss the country. Knowing that flexibility is the key to Ironman training, the Team didn’t miss a beat. An alternate plan was formulated involving…

Sleeping in the airport…

Flying to New York City…

And riding on a not-quite-greyhound bus.

After arriving at 8:45 AM this morning, the team checked into the hotel, registered for the race, picked up their bikes, swam in the lake, and attended the pre-race pasta party. A busy day! Tomorrow they’ll check in their bikes and bags, and attend the TNT Pasta Party. Sunday is Race Day! Weather looks great… Track their progress on ironmanlive.com
