Wanted to put a quick shout out to my swim coach and good friend Nick Goodman from Durapulse, his link is in my sidebar.
Nick took 29th at Ironman USA (aka lake Placid) on Sunday finishing in 10:04. I am almost positive that he accepted the slot to Kona, as that was his plan from the beginning.
He started the year paying and racing at the California 70.3 (formally Ralph's) winning a slot to a future IM race. He choose IMUSA as his chance to win a slot for Kona. When you have the ability to pay for a half and then slot an IM and then slot Kona you're having a pretty good year.
This will be Nicks second time to Kona. He had a sub-10 finish there the first time. I expect that with his maturity in the sport and a little bit of favor from the weather gods he could best that this year.

Congratulations to Nick. Anyone who offers 4 months of coached training for $400 more than deserves to get what he wants out of IM. I wish I lived in Arizona - except for that part about the heat.
Go to the doctor, Comms! What are you waiting for?
That is good news!!
Comm get better ASAP, those are Dr. Tony's orders.
Good job keeping track of Nicks performance on Sunday. We all needto support each other.
Finishing 3rd in his age group did indeed secure his spot at Kona.
Keep up the good work Comm.
