With only a 2% chance of winning, is it worth it to pay $90 for a repeat chance at Kona?
According to web site, only $40 is need to apply. However, for an extra $50 you get to double your chances by throwing your name into the hat a 2nd time. So what's an extra $50? If you are going to be a sucker, might as well go with the full monty.
So why post about a lottery entry? Hmm. One of my only regrets about my first/last Kona journey was lack of blog posts prior to Ironman week.
Mark your calendars. The Kona drawing is April 15th. As soon as you pay your taxes, you can start forking over dollars to the M. corporation -- assuming you are in the 2% pool.

Liked your post. I too was a sucker for the $50 extra chance. There's something magical about the time between now and April 15 though..just dreaming about racing in that event gives me tears. Best of luck to you in the lottery!
