The Coeur d'Alene Ironman Part Two

Team Blaze out of Spokane Washington had a good turn out of athletes in this years race.  They all seem to be having a great time and a lot of smiles during what is a taxing event.

Team Blaze had a great turn out of supporters for the athletes who cheered on everyone and still managed to cheer even louder when Team Blaze members ran by.

 Team Blaze is a Club and you can find out more here: http://www.teamblazespokane.com/ 

The 2013 Coeur d'Alene Ironman Part One

The 2013 Coeur d'Alene Ironman event was great this year.  Great weather and a great support staff from volunteers to the full time staff.

The start of the 2013 Coeur d'Alene Ironman was a bit overcast through the swim.  By the time the athletes were on the bikes the clouds cleared for a beautiful day.

The swim start for the race was staggered so there were less injures than previous years.
