Change of plans...

Three months until race day. I get an email from Ironman saying that 70.3 National Harbor has been cancelled. No explanation, just cancelled. Needless to say, their Facebook page is blowing up with confused and angry athletes from all over the world. I feel for those who had to book air travel for this race. They're not going to get that money back. Thankfully the event is (was) only about a 3 hour drive for me. And thank god I didn't pre-pay for the hotel. So, now to find a new "A" race for 2012. I'm considering Steelhead in Michigan Aug 19 or Timberman in New Hampshire, also Aug 19. Hopefully there are still spots open...
