Great race!

Think twice about socks... I ran my first last week, really racked my feet up without socks...

Yeah, the socks probably cost me about 2 seconds! That might have put me one place up in the standings but not even close to the podium. It is amazing how we worry about the little things in those races. Someone needs to invent a sock that can be worn throughout the race.

Yes, Bob, PLEASE keep the socks on!  The odor alone is good enough reason!

Great race.  You're catching up!

LOL! Yeah, I am actually debating whether to run w/o socks. Can you bike w/o socks? I don't know...I don't think I could do it- I'm so used to socks. I did get some Yankz though, that should help. Great race, and it was good to get a race in before St. A so you work all the kinks out...See ya in 13 days!

Biking without socks is no problem for me. Every time I try running though I get blisters. It isn't worth the extra 5-10 seconds to not put them on after the bike.

See you in 2 weeks!! Hope you are feeling better.
