Jay's Macro for IMFL after IMC's early admin. pull

Well since I got pulled off the route with just 13 miles to go and more than an hour to get to T2 due to IMC wanting to open the hwy early, now I have to to move on to IMFL. I will be writing the race director an email and trying to get things figured out. I feel they shouldn't pull everyone off the course based on the guys that 15 minutes behind us (20 other athletes...some had been waiting 5 minutes before I even got there). If I didn't/wouldn't make the time cutoff that would be another story, but I made all the time cutoffs and still hade an hour and ten plus minutes left. It took us 1.5 hours just to get back by bus with the slow ~5mph ride to the village. Today the papers were saying, "they opened up the road early".

I also have the First Place Div. 1 Team plaque that was presented at the post race presentation.....where would you like me to send it?

After this get resolved (yah right with WTC?...head banging going on) I need to move on to IMFL. My achilles problem I believe is almost not a problem anymore and I feel I could go out and do anything today after what happened this last Sunday.

I'm looking for your recommendations....and not on how to get over being pissed (it doesn't help that other athletes are pissed about this too and one was giving some solice and he was from England...he brought it up, not me). If you start singing, "Let it go, let it go" from Frozen I'll hunt you down and kill you.

On to IMFL.

  • I don't have a races planned at this time other than IMFL. Coach R. should I place some on the horizon?

    Jay, so sorry to hear about your race! Very curious to see what WTC's solution is, though based on past experience I'm not very hopeful 

    Up to you if you feel you need / want to do another race between now and IMFL, though putting something on the calendar would help to give you a shorter term focus. If you do want to add something, please edit the TSR you submitted to me a few days ago and I'll work that in. I'll wait to do that until I hear from you. Thanks.
