Frankfurt Ironman

Im in!

oops, i entered........

I don't think I'm going to

Bloody hell! It seems to get more expensive every year.

Golden Boots - I may possibly do Wiesbaden 70.3 next year as I have been cleared to race up to the half distance (no more IMs). But also want to do Challenge Vichy - it is dead flat!

As I have friends in Mainz still it is always tempting as a cheaper (than most, because of no accomodation costs) international half... depends what I do. They are tempted to move though shortly so may not have that option for much longer, so 2013 may be my final opportunity!!!

I was disapointed to see the course changed from when I did it in 2009... however it is closer to the roads I used to cycle on when I lived there these days so could be great for old memories

stayed at the hotel ibis centrum this year, not expensive if you book direct with them (or ++ if you book with them via nirvana). from there it a 10min walk from the train station if you take the train from the airport, and its a short walk to registration/t2/busses for transfers to t1 the day before for racking/morning of the race. rooms are very small, but helpful staff and its right on the corner of the run course so well located.

I was looking at the Ibis. About £200 for 4 nights during IM weekend.
