Just a couple weeks ago two of my already-Kona-qualified athletes asked if they could participate in Ironman Texas, which takes place tomorrow down in The Woodlands, near Houston---that hot, sticky place I had the fortune of visiting merely a month or so ago."Um, let me think about it for a sec-- NO. Besides, you'll never be able to enter this late. You two ought to know that! And I don't think they offer eBay slots!" (They didn't buy their way in to either this race or Kona, parenthetically.)
"You mean you want to go participate by watching, right?"
"No. We would like to guide a blind athlete and maybe bring a little more awareness to the C-different Foundation."
"Well then, of course."
Good luck to Patricia, Michelle and Sonja! Enjoy the experience.
