Kailua-Kona, Hawaii
September 22 to October 20, 2004

Back with the boys working on another of Gordo Byrn and Scott Molina's Epic Camps. This one is a little different - its a prep camp for the crew that will be racing Ironman Hawaii, the World Championships, on October 16th. I'm in Kona a week before and a week following the camp. In the week following I'll be hanging with some friends and working the IMH finish line.
