Against my better judgment, I just signed up for my first Ironman, which will be next May: May 21, 2011 | The Woodlands, TX | Memorial Hermann Ironman Texas
Athletes will begin with a 2.4-mile swim in Lake Woodlands. Next is a 112-mile bike course that will take participants west through the scenic, rolling farmland of east Texas. The day ends with a 26.2-mile run course entirely within The Woodlands that concludes with a spectacular finish on Market Street.
