Do you think Ironman is insane for not having a full Ironman race in California?

Ironman knows they have a "virtual monopoly" on Ironman distance races and know athletes don't have any other IM distance race alternatives. I would like to see some
changes in the next few years and would appreciate any of your help to encourage them to change.

1) Atleast 1 IM distance race in Northern and Southern California.
2) Consolidate the race activities into 3 days Fri, Sat, Sun (instead of current 5)

Tell them how we feel if you agree!

I would love to see an IM race come back to Southern Cal. IM California was a great race and I was saddened to see it go. To be honest the entry fee is a little higher than other races but I spend a lot more on travel, hotels and other prep costs than I do on entry fees!

I was just having this conversation with my wife the other day. We were discussing lodging for the Oceanside 70.3 I am entered in. The next year I am planning a Full IM and was thinking where and wishing there was one here in CA. I guess I will have to travel for now.

Isn't the Vineman is CA? I realize it's not an M-Dot race but Iron is Iron.

You are correct Scott but I am assuming we are refering M-Dot events. I would like one closer to LA/OC area.

I would love to see them bring a full back to California. I don't even care about the higher fee. No affense but you get what you pay for and the last race I did the volunteer left their post for a few and I missed a vital turn adding almost half an hour to my race!

I've done M-Dots and Independants. I've been luckier than most but due to the risks imposed by "life", I won't ever sign up for race 12 months in advance again. Doing GFT 140.6 in Oct and just signed up 6 weeks ago. Love the flexability of independants. I guarantee the Great Floridian rivals any WTC race (exeption Kona). The only WTC race I'd like to do some day is Lanzarote Canarias. I'd also like to do the Endura Sport Iron Plus race in the Bahamas. Point is, Iron is Iron :)
