Pre-race routine:

Woke up at 430, took a shower, ate a bowl of cerial, then drove to Milwaukee. Got my transition area set up and pumped up my tires then had to leave transition area and sit around for 2 more hours! my wave didn't start till 945 after the initial 15 minute start delay.
Event warmup:

jumped in the water and swam for a little bit then treaded water waiting for the horn to blow.
