I received an email from WTC yesterday and apparently Ironman thinks I should be in the "Physically Challenged" category for the Ironman Raleigh 70.3.
I guess my past times have been so slow that they must think there is something wrong with me.
Thanks Ironman...I'm just speed challenged!!.
Haha, sorry but I know how you feel. I'm in that category as well although I haven't received an invite to the physically challenged group yet. Just this week a group of runners passed me from behind as if I was going the other way and one asked if I was OK. I was great and running at good pace I thought...
ReplyDeleteSad but I think that has happened to me also.

Oh IRonman...you need some PR and communications help. Yesterday I got an email from the Kansas 70.3 race director welcoming us and thanking the city of Lawrence including Mayor (name name).
ReplyDeleteA friend of mine got #52 at IMCDA a few years ago. When we checked in the lady was like are you a pro? My friend was like ah, no. Are you a PC athlete. No. They changed her division but left her # so she got to rack in a sweet spot. When she got to her rack in the morning a true PC girl was like oh you're my competition. Rachel explained the situation and the girl responded, I was going to say, it looks like you have both legs! It was hilarious. And we still call her #52 today :)
That's awesome and really funny!!
