And Finally, the Big Announcement!!!!!

Can you believe it?  The day is finally here for me to make the big announcement!  I know you probably didn't get much sleep this last week, trying to piece all five of my wonderful clues together.  It's ok.  Neither did I!  No more waiting.  Here's the explanation for each clue:

Since I did my first Ironman Arizona, this is the progression of my participation.  I did my first in April of 2008, next in November of 2008, next in November 2009, I sat out in 2010, am racing this year (2011), and will be sitting out in 2012.

The year I'm sitting out of Ironman Arizona is Arizona's 100th birthday!

The year I sit don't race Ironman, I will obviously be saving money...but for what I wonder?

For one of these beauties!  Well, not this one, though it would be awesome to see someone do an Ironman on this.

And I will be racing again in 2013 (Mayan calendar symbolizes 2012, +1 = 2013), hopefully with a new bike!

So the big announcement?  I plan on buying a bike for the 2013 Ironman Arizona!  whether or not this actually happens depends on a lot, and I mean a lot, of things.  But, 2013 will is a ways out and I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Did you think that was an anticlimactic announcement?  Me too.  The point of all of this was to show how annoying the RunDisney process was.  I'm pretty sure it worked.  I promise to never to this again...
