Master 1895    |  Subject: RE: Hawk Island Official Thread 6/6macdane - 2010-06-02 3:32 PM Nothing like last-minute changes... I'm not doing the race (I'm the photographer!) but my wife signed up and is now fighting an ankle injury. Anyone interested in her spot? I just talked with Kathie Dunbar and we're nearly out of time to get info changed with the timing company. Call me! Dane 517-290-3456 Hey! Thanks for taking pictures. You do a great job. |

| Master 1895 | Subject: RE: Hawk Island Official Thread 6/6 Ok...here's the official BT Rawk Squad list of 2010 Hawk Island participants (taken from the bowels of this thread):
I think this is everyone. If I missed you, add your name to the list. There will be a Racing Greyhounds Tent and a blue "unofficial BT" tent both set up near the finish line. Please don't be shy...stop by before and after your race! |

| New user 388 | Subject: RE: Hawk Island Official Thread 6/6 I'll be there but not sure what capacity or how far I'll be going. The Dr's confirmed I've got 2 groin hernia's right now. Had to have had them last weekend and had no issue so I still plan on participating, just maybe not racing per se. |

Veteran 316 Grass Lake, MI | Subject: RE: Hawk Island Official Thread 6/6 I just think you need to have some more "Chips and Salsa" beer. It will make you forget all about the pain. |

Master 1327 Ann Arbor, Michigan | Subject: RE: Hawk Island Official Thread 6/6 Kristen, & all: I hope you all have a blast, this was such a fun venue. I have revised your list :-) as I decided to transfer my registration to a much more excited and willing participant! Have fun everyone!

Veteran 316 Grass Lake, MI | Subject: RE: Hawk Island Official Thread 6/6 Jamie and I were both out there last night. The water was warm. I thought I heard someone say it was in the low 70's. Everyone without a wetsuit will be just fine. |

Regular 86 Haslett | Subject: RE: Hawk Island Official Thread 6/6 I'm more concerned about the air temperature on Sunday morning. TWC hourly forecast says upper 50's. I'm considering wearing my wetsuit because of that. I wanted to get in the water to warm up but may not due to the air temp. Anybody have some suggestions for not freezing? |

Master 1467 Small Town | Subject: RE: Hawk Island Official Thread 6/6 BlestMama - 2010-06-04 11:11 AM I'm more concerned about the air temperature on Sunday morning. TWC hourly forecast says upper 50's. I'm considering wearing my wetsuit because of that. I wanted to get in the water to warm up but may not due to the air temp. Anybody have some suggestions for not freezing? I'd say 'no' to the wetsuit, especially if the water is warmer than the air temp. The water will feel good as compared to the air temp, so you'll warm up in the water... with a wetsuit on, you'll probably get too hot. I'd say pack a light and tight jacket into your transition area and put it on for the bike, ditch it for the run. |

I swam it yesterday with a wetsuit and I didn't over heat. I would say wear the wetsuit for Sunday if you want it for warmth and the extra buoyancy. I will be wearing mine. Good luck. |

New user 6 | Subject: RE: Hawk Island Official Thread 6/6 Okay, got my wife's registration transferred (thanks Kathie!) so keep an eye out for Bert Sherman and give him a warm Hawk-I-Tri welcome. Originally from Lansing, he lives in GR now and does several tris per year but this is his first here. Good luck to all, and try to smile for the cameras! Dane |

Regular 86 Haslett | Subject: RE: Hawk Island Official Thread 6/6 For those that haven't checked their emails, Kathie has informed us that the park WILL charge an entrance fee ($2 for Ingham county residents, $4 for everyone else). This is sure to cause a line up to get in. If you live in the area and pick up your race packet today, you'll get a free pass to park tomorrow. |
