>>The Official 2012 Ironman Coeur d'Alene Race Tracking and Good Luck Thread
Based on their Race Group, the IM CdA folks are ramped and ready to roll! Send them good mojo here and also track them on race day.
Meet many of them here via the Meet The Team Bios: http://tinyurl.com/74e4rd9
Rock on!
UPDATE:
ATTN: Because WTC keeps breaking our feed to the TeamEN Ironman Race Day Tracker we have decided to do a team-wide test of this IronTrac app. If you have an extra 99 cents in your pocket and want to be a tester for us, please do so for IM CdA this weekend. I have heard nothing but good things about this app so far. Coach Rich gives it a thumbs up. Thanks.
Here is the link to the app: http://tinyurl.com/7orpyyp

Good luck Team EN! Show 'em how its done.
Thanks to Marc for hooking up that tracker!
Cool, overcast, and a little breezy here this morning.
I rode the new course yesterday, on my road bike. You can view the ride here on Strava. I had a small mechanical issue on the first out and back that slowed me down for a bit before I got it fixed in town. My impressions of the new bike course:
When you're motoring at 23mph on a road bike on a flat or even false flat road with a slight head/cross breeze from 2 to 4pm...it's a fast course. I plan to race it with a 25/11 next year, maybe a 23-11 after I test it out on the longer hills.
Marc:
How did you do that? AWESOME!

Just finished up my bike and checking in to some great work by the team at CDA. Finish up strong everyone.

Noticed some pretty long T1 times....guessing that the water was pretty cold again this year and a few folks might have needed the warming tents....but looks like they all kept going (last year a number of folks DNF'd after the swim as they were just too cold)... Everyone keep moving....
Just go to the race page on your iPad: http://live.ironman.com/?race=coeurdalene&year=2012 and play a video, then select your TV in the AirPlay menu on the iPad - boom!
* How? WTC finally got it's act together in the past month or so and now streams video in industry standard h.264 mpeg that allows viewing of the video content w/o flash, that's the magic that makes it all happen.
I did not see his finish but congrats to Jim Moss who missed last years raced with an injury the day before he left for CDA.
Nice job to the other finishers so far as well.
