I'll be there, wearing a black and yellow tri suit, come say hi.

I am supposed to be doing it but haven't registered yet. Nothing like the last minute, eh? :-) I'll be in white IM Kona sleeveless jersey riding a blue Cervelo P2.

Looking forward to seeing ya'

I'm the gal in the 2 piece Zoot suit-a light blue top and black shorts.

My bike...it is a beat-up blue MTB.  I am yet to earn myself a tri bike.

Didn't make it out there, my kids' decided they wanted to take me to the airshow at Olympia Airport and I was very happy I went, it was a great time. How did the race go?

I took the 'scenic' route and got there 5 minutes before the start.  whoo hoo!  Warm up was a run to the Restroom to change and run to the start...the rocks on the beach are not comfortable on bare feet!  They were super nice and held the start off for a moment so I could put on my goggles.  Fortunately I had a friend with me...he set up my transition area. 

The race went well.  There were a few scattered raindrops at the beginning of the bike leg, but it wasn't long before the sun came out.

Gotta love those last minute arrivals, the adrenaline rush is a great warm up! :-) Good job and glad you had a good race. :-)
