Memorial Hermann Ironman Texas : Official Thread (Page 35)

Yep I'm racing this year. #1072. Water temp dropped a little but I saw a some water movement where I was taking the temp, so the lake might have turned there. I was waiting for an official temp to show up today. If I don't see one, I'll post. Might take a second temp to be sure.

My new ride all ready for Saturday ---Chris #2037

For those using the myAthlete GPS tracking:

Are you (or can you) using it for the swim? If so, can you use it under the wet suit? will it work?

Do you need to use the included belt ? or can you use your race belt (or both)????

Y'all can find me at the athlete's dinner because I'll have a shirt on w/ this logo:

Put it on your race belt.

I believe they advise you NOT to use it in the water. I used it last year and just threw it in my pocket in T1. Maybe they have new ones this year. 

You can use it on either belt. 

Holy..

                           . 

Took the bike out for a quick 2 hours yesterday. Craziest ride ever. First, a bird flew into my front wheel (ya you read that right). luckily it was small and i was on the horns so i didnt wreck. The bird however...well there were feathers everywhere.

It gets better. about 7 miles from home I'm about to ride over what looks like a stick...turns out to be a snake (alive). I ran over it AND FLATTED. thank god for co2 and a spair.

you cant make this stuff up. Mother nature is trying to crash me out of the race..

Well I would post my bike pic but I don't know how to put pictures in here.... technology hates me!  How do you do it?

???

I'm sure it would be, but the engine running it has been slacking like a big dog.

Beautiful!!!

Let's start putting up some race ready bike pics! 
Mine's not race ready yet... I still have 2 rides left before the road trip. 

She's all dressed up and ready for the dance.

Looks quick! I need to get me a wheel jacket... =\

I'll play. The only difference between this set p and race day is I will have a DarkSpeedWorks bento on the top tube right behind the stem
