Hey Locos! I wanted to share my race recap of IMCA! For those of you who haven't been following I DNFd my first attempt at the Ironman distance last month at IMWI. I undertrained on the bike (missed some critical workouts during the build due to illness and wasn't prepared for the almost 6000ft of elevation gain) and missed the time cutoff. The next day I signed up for IMCA as my redemption race as I knew I had what it takes to get across that finish line. Adding 6 more weeks of training after dedicating an entire year to IMWI was more challenging than I expected. All of the work commitments and family needs that I had been pushing off until "after my Ironman" seemed to crash down on me after Madison. I did my best to keep in training mode but will admit I did not adhere well to the training plan. My first impression of Sacramento was a little underwelming compared to the show Madison seemed to put on with Ironman Village and the convention center but Sac Town definitely grew on me as I was there and I appreciated the Cali vibes before I left! The swim was so fast and so fun! The American River did not feel as cold as the shock I had gotten in the practice swim (62-63°F) so I was dialed in from the moment I put my face in. The water was very clear so I easily navigated other swimmers and plants in the water. The temperature dropped more than 4 degrees when we hit the Sacramento River and you could immediately feel the current pick up. I swam really hard to hit the red turn buoy until I noticed it was being pulled away from me by a jet ski. I stopped to try and understand what was happening and eventually a volunteer waived us on. Apparently the buoy had come loose and was floating down river. Many swimmers didn't even attempt the turn buoy so I can at least say I tried to follow the rules! The Sacremento River was fast and I was making the turn into the ramps to get out before I knew it. No sea lion sightings while I was swimming but I am sure they enjoyed watching us swim. My time was 45 minutes faster than what I had done at IMWI so the current was definitely flowing! Great swim for slower swimmers like me and for first timers with anxiety about open water swimming. I really liked that I could see in the first river and after the shock of the transition to the second river you are basically done before you feel like you have put in much work!

Hi Everyone! I would like to gather some photos and videos for content of LOCOs racing or training in LOCO gear! It doesn't specifically have to be from this season. Post what you got below!
