Well the weather report for race morning. Sunny and 40 degrees, Ugh!
I did not bring anything to cope with cold. I'm hoping it is not windy, the bike will be cold enough as it is.
I'm going to make sure I take a bit of extra time in T1 drying off. I just have to remember an extra towel.
Maybe 40 won't feel cold once I'm rolling?
Guess this will be a good Mooseman lesson after all.

Wow!! No matter how you slice it, 40 degrees on a bike will be cold, especially you have dropped some of your ability to insulate yourself. I am just glad to see it is a pool swim!
Just got my race packet. Less than 100 participants.
I'll be the 15th person to start swimming.
The swim is interesting. You start in lane 1. Swim to the right side of the lane down and back. You duck under the lane divider at the end of each 50. Working your way down 6 lanes then out of the pool.
I don't have the clothes for this. I'm going to towel off big time after the swim. Then I'm going to have a long sleeve cotton jersey and a pair of jeans to wear for the bike. Good that the jeans are loose!
If I were on my road bike I'd feel like a fool. Fat tire Division, I don't feel so badly.
I'll lose the Jeans for the run. Still hopeful for a quick run. I'm just going to have bad transitions
I didn't look at the blog yesterday, I look today think you already have done the TRi. Can't wait to here the results. We can call you the "Blue Jean" kid or something fun like that.
Hope you do well.
