The schedule says a 45 min swim followed by a 90 minute bike...  Let me know if anyone has any interest in playing along  (for some or all of it)...

I have to do 45 minute swim, 1.25 hr bike, and 30 minute run on Saturday.  We can swim in Lake Denoon (Muskego), which is much larger than Minnedonka.  I can get someone to kayak next to us.

Why to you need to drag Minnedonka bashing into this?  Also, Lake Michigan is much larger than Lake Denoon if that is your criteria for bodies of water you can swim in.  I think bscharff is trying to get a course preview.  Highly recommend getting in Lake Michigan before SOR if ya can to feel the cold watery goodness for anyone doing it.

I am not bashing Minnedonka, just stating the facts.  I would love to get a course preview but I do not think I have time on Saturday to get down to Lake Michigan.

What time would you want to start..?  I would like to swim in Lake Michigan at some point before SOR, however I suppose I could down early Sunday morning and splash around a little (given that I'm traveling most of next week for work)...

plan for Saturday is a bike couse ride with wheels out of T1 by 5:30 and then hitting the run course as soon as we get back. 6:10-6:15

a non BT friend and SOR first timer is also going to be there for the fun.

I'm flexible as long as I'm done by 7:00
