Expert 1226 Chicago | Subject: RE: Spirit of Racine Half Ironman Triathlon suzimmer - 2008-07-17 2:28 PM RunningJayhawk - 2008-07-17 9:40 AM today is the first day i'm starting to get nervous. my husband isn't going to be there with me for this race. and i'm FREAKING THE EFF OUT. It was starting to look like I wasn't going to be able to do the race due to lack of transportation. I'm just eternally thankful that my friends are going to be driving me there from Chicago at 4am on Sunday. Anyone know what time transition opens/closes before the race? I'm with you. Not only am I now getting nervous, my first HIM, it looks like my husband will not be there either. I hate doing a race and not having him waiting at the finish. I'll be staying at my mom's in Libertyville the night before to cut down the drive. You should come find me the morning of...we can keep eachother company! |

Nothing like standing around, nervous and not having anyone to talk to. |

Just look for some Donkey/Tri-Donkai racing tops - we're friendly and can hope to ease your worries a little. |

Can you even swim in that? I am not a participant, so that made me giggle. Remember, cloud cover makes for incorrect temp interpretations. |

Extreme Veteran 684 Racine, Wisconsin | Subject: RE: Spirit of Racine Half Ironman Triathlon Hey Peeps I drove by the lake at lunch and the buoys are in the water, the only thing is they look to be set 1/2 the distance closer to shore than normal . They looked to be place and were right in line with the normal swim area buoys (30-50' from shore) the city of Racine uses. If they stay there, it should equate to warmer/calmer water? |
