Hi coach,
I am doing IM Boulder and I was wondering what would be the advantages /disadvantages of doing a Tri camp (lake placid) vs a 70.3.
Any thoughts? Thanks

    What are the dates of the camp/races you're looking at and remind me again what date is IMB. Thanks.

    IMBoulder is Aug 3rd and I was debating between a camp end of June or a 70.3 the 1st or 2nd weekend of June too.(around 8 weeks out)

    See Patrick's camp on the IMLP course here: http://www.endurancenation.us/camps/im-course-rallies/

    That would be a much better camp for you and an excellent learn-how-to-race-Ironman opportunity. 

    Do you have a 70.3 racing opportunity in late May/early June? If you're in the NE, Rev3 Quassy is a key race for EN, will be huge numbers of athletes there. I believe the race is ~6/2.
