Hill Training for IMAZ??
I spent some time driving to the hills in my 12 week run-up for IMCDA and that paid off 'cause I had no problems with the course. Since IMAZ is mostly flat should I continue to include hills in my bike program or is it better to just train on the flats? I'm thinking that the extra power I develop on the hills translates to faster times on the flat. What do you think?

Hills teach discipline and focus (watts up vs down). Hills are great to simulate the steady winds you'll most likely face when you are out there. I would do it at least 1x a month!

Even though a watt is a watt...after I did my hill training for IMCDA 2008, my TX flatlander friends couldn't hold my wheel on flats.
