Good tip on riding your bike in from the parking lot...it's no big deal and saves the crunch on the bus! 

Here's what I remember from last year:  swim was pleasant and the lake was clear, no wetsuit - it's may in florida ; bike was FUN on rolling hills that weren't awful but were fun (I live in south florida - read *no hills* and really enjoyed the bike); the run was 3 loops and was like dawn of the dead!!  It was hot, surface was totally uneven, grassy with small dirt trails and no shade.  By the last loop everyone is miserable and you just keep seeing the same zombies over and over with pure misery on their faces.  THey also ran out of coke in the finishers tent by the time I got over there and I had to drink sprite with my pizza.  egads.  I really don't like sprite. 

OH, and at that time of year, you have to stay hydrated or die.

Mario...first, GO GATORS!, secondly, yes the water/gatorade on the bike course were in squirt type bottles.  I had a hard time getting it in my profile bottle because of the congestion of the area, and lack of a bottle cage to put it in.  I ended up taking a huge drink and tossing the bottle.  Maybe have an extra cage to put a bottle until you have time to fill up the aero bottle??

Looking forward to seeing everyone out there!
