IMAZ Tri-Rally Planning Thread
TeamEN IMAZ,
I'm considering bringing our Tri-Rally show to the IMAZ course in...probably October. We had 60 people at LP, will be 100+ at WI next weekend...just a great thing to keep on rolling and AZ is only a 5hr drive away so...
- I want to do this on the weekend of your first race rehearsal. I hates doing calendar math. Can you tell me what weekend that would be?
- I will run this out of a host hotel: lodging, presentations, etc, ideally very, very close to downtown. I've always stayed on the other side of T-Town Lake. Any suggestions for a downtown venue?
- Would like to do a swim clinic on Thursday. Possible venues?
Anything else?

yeah sounds good. keep me posted.
i think any side of the lake would be fine. sharing rooms would be cool, if anyone is interested, to help defer cost.
arizona state would be a close by place for a swim clinic, but i don't know cost or logistics. i seem to recall that around that time there was a 2.4mile swim in the actual lake, put on by some organization. would be cool if it happened on the same weekend. i'll see if i can find info on that.
the run loop course is engraved in my muscle memory, in case you need specifics.
looking forward to more details.

@Rich - Is this thing gonna happen? When might we know so we can start making arrangements?
Terry, yes, it will happen. Let me continue to work some things back here before we are ready to make a formal announcement. Thanks.
@ ;Rich
Saguaro Lake for a swim venue - pretty close to town and accessible via Beeline Highway - they have an open water swim race there so it must be suitable for swimming
Here is a hotel - it is right at the bike course turnaround, has meeting facilities, group rates (including free room for the "organizer"), free hot breakfast, free shuttle service for groups
Just some ideas.
Didn't see this thread until now - somehow the forum subscribe button is not catching new posts.
Glad to see this happening. Sad that I won't be there; I have a previous engagement on October 9th. I guess you could call it my RR for IM AZ!
Hey Guys,
I'm officially pulling the plug on this and hopefully can make it happen for everyone next year. Sorry to get your hopes up!
