Ok, getting the jitters now! I'm ready to go, will have a hard time "waiting" through the busy logistics of today and tomorrow to get to the start of the race:)

There are 3 ways to get live information on Sunday:
LIVE GPS tracking for Greg: www.watchmyrace.com and click on links for Ironman France
