I made it!
If you recall my pre-flight post to IM Boulder, there were many questions about traveling as a triathlete.
- I didn’t get bumped. I guess enough people took vouchers and later flights that they shoe horned us in after they down-sized the plane.
- I got on with my transition bag packed and a small backpack for the laptop and miscellaneous items.
- No overweight charges for the bike bag! Frontier held true to their baggage guidelines and did not charge me an outrageous fee to travel with my bike. $15 for a checked bag. SCORE one for the broke triathlete!
- Thank the lord – Starbucks at KCI was open at 5AM!!! SCORE one for the tired triathlete!
I got enough charge on the laptop to write some post drafts! Lucky you guys!- The bike bag wasn't completely unscathed. It took a hit on the front where the fork support is. Looks like I will need to track down some duct tape.
Now, the next order of business will be to try and re-assemble the bike and hope it works, check in for the race, and find the house I’ll be staying at!

Saw the post on CTER about you racing Boulder. I'll be out there too. Wishing you a great race. Enjoy our fine state! Looking forward to a race report
Lived in Denver for a while back in 2000. LOVE the state. Only place besides KC I would move to if I was given a choice.
Good luck! Bib 1798 (I think).
