Regular  200  Stoughton, WI |  Subject: RE: Spirit of Racine....runs_with_jasper - 2009-11-02 8:50 AM How much is Door County 1/2? Rob had mentioned both of us doing Racine - I think that is a ridiculous amount of money. I will have to look into Door County also, I think. |

The 2009 half was $140. Well, not as cheap as SOR was, but still a lot more reasonable than $200. I'm waiting for info on that one, but I'm thinking I may go High Cliff this year. It's cheapola - $85 until February. (Don't these people know these are tough economic times? :P ) |

Master 1303 Mishicot, Wisconsin | Subject: RE: Spirit of Racine.... I'm going to Door County. I do have loyalty to that race, but Racine is much further for me and I just can't reason spending so much on a half distance. |

Extreme Veteran 516 Waukesha | Subject: RE: Spirit of Racine.... Racine would still cost less because I would have a place to stay, but I am still up in the air with what I want to do next year... |

Expert 2355 Madison, Wisconsin | Subject: RE: Spirit of Racine.... I'm bummed because I was really looking forward to doing some major 70.3 Pr'ing but I feel as if Ironman will alter the course to make sure that it is a true 70.3 course. At least the run course is flat unlike Lake Geneva's unrelenting attack of hill after hill. Well see what I decide but I do know that it is close enough to me that I will not need to get a hotel which I would for Door County so the cost might be alright, not too sure yet |

Extreme Veteran 460 | Subject: RE: Spirit of Racine.... Brendon and I signed up. We figured if we went to DC, we would stay for 2 nights...and then that would drive the price past Racine's cost anyway. Racine is closer for us. And according to the IM "plan" we are using, that is a suggested weekend to do a race. It would have been nice to have SOR stay SOR costwise...the hubcap likes the idea of the point to point swim as this will be his first year of doing triathlons. |

Expert 1091 Madison | Subject: RE: Spirit of Racine.... I decided to do Door County. I am staying at the state campground and I think Robert and Wendy (Bertgwen and Gwenbert) and perhaps Deanna will be too. Between the price increase and the rough roads, I thought it would be a better idea to do Door County than Racine. |

| Extreme Veteran 476 WI | Subject: RE: Spirit of Racine.... I was strongly leaning towards DC since I heard great things about it, and I wanted to make a long weekend out of it. I think the cost comes out even when factoring travel, lodging, etc. Still...more than likely doing DC to combine training and vacation. |

There are several campsites available at Potawatomi State Park and we will be camping. That way the lodging isn't too expensive. Edited by runs_with_jasper 2009-11-04 5:24 PM |

Ususally at Peninsula State Park and then staying for a few days of vacation after the race. |

We'll see....... Ohh that sounds good. I hope that happens. That would definitely be my race of choice since i live in Madison. Although i hope we get more news about it soon before registration for others is filled up! |

I didn't register for Door County last year until late May. However, it is gaining popularity, so I would maybe try earlier. This year I am planning on registering right as it opens in early January. |
