ironman canada: track me!

Here we go!

IRONMAN Canada got really real when I picked up this yesterday…

My bib number: 435
Nick’s bib number: 1252

One of three ways to track us:

  1. My twitter feed (@erinklegstad). My fab sista will be live tweeting all day! (Ecstatic my entire family is here to cheer!)
  2. Ironman.com. Live streaming from start to finish.
  3. The Irontrac app. Just 99 cents, this app is slick. I’ve used it to track the past seven IMs in which friends have raced.

I’m as ready as I’ll ever be and couldn’t be more excited. We drove the entire bike course yesterday, and while there are some serious climbs and descents – 10 percent grade! – it is absolutely spectacular. When I’m cursing those climbs, I’ll just look around at the British Columbia beauty – and be thankful I switched my cassette to a 12-27 🙂

The gun goes off Sunday morning at 7a PT (9a CT)! See you at the finish line!

    I chose not to drive the bike course- hoping ignorance is bliss is true 🙂

    Huzzah! The day is here! You are going to swim like a fish, roll like a marble around a loop de loop and run like a gazelle! I’ll be thinking of you. The app looks like it’s only for Iphones. I’m a samsung gal. Sad! I’ll try to check out the life feed! Thinking of you all day long!!

    Just checked the tracker, and you’re on the home stretch of the run! You’re run splits have been incredible – doesn’t look like you’ve faded at all! Totally rocking the Ironman!
