Race Captain and what you can expect!!!
Hi Team, I am excited to announce that I have volunteered to be race captain for Ironman Boulder. I raced Boulder last year and I have done the 70.3 course going on 4 years. I’m very familiar with area and the terrain so any questions you have, just ask. I will be working closely with Brenda, our Race Director to make sure your race experience with team EN is enjoyable and one to remember. I suggest everyone subscribe to this thread. In that way you will be notified as new folders and messages are posted.
I will check in with you periodically and certainly more frequently as we all transition into the Ironman Plan. I’m thinking about taking a long weekend in Boulder to ride the course and do some running along the boulder creek path. Think of it as a mini training camp. I don’t have specific dates planned but I’m thinking end of June, early July. More to come on this topic, but if you think you might be interested, please let me know.
I hope your training is going well. Again, any questions just ask and I look forward to going on this journey with all of you!

Thanks Mark! Looking forward to your pearls of wisdom!
I am planning on doing the crucible camp with Coach Rich, but would be interested in a mini-camp in Boulder as well.
@Paula - good deal on the crucible camp with Rich and team. I'm working on scheduling and should be able to make a call one way or the other in the next couple weeks. Timing would be great from both a volume and an altitude perspective. Hopefully I can make it work.
@Damon - Cool! Timing-wise anything from mid June to mid July should work. I'll throw out a few dates within the next couple weeks and lets see what works for people. I'm thinking 2 back to back days of riding the course with a 6-8mile brick after one or both days - something like that.
