I have a lucky transition bag.  It's from my One and only time I represented my state at a national contest (in IT... NOT in any sort of sporting event)  It's maroon and has enough room for EVERYTHING. 

 I also have the State representative jumper.  If it's cold enough I'll wear it before a tri.

lets see... BANANAS... That's my morning ritual.  Bananas.

regardless of how many times I've gone over my checklist, packed and repacked my transition bag the night before, I always end up pulling everything out and repacking 5 minutes before I walk out the door. *shrug*

I also make sure I arrive early enough to listen to "Comfortably Numb" without interuption before I even get out of the Jeep.

4. Kiss my DH and tell him how much I appreciate him for being my sherpa (he is my extra Infinit holder) and semi cheerleader.

Why do you need a designated hitter in a triathlon?

 

huh-Designated hitter?  Since I have yet to do a tri, I guess I was thinking about marathons. Does that answer your question?

Ooh...great thread!

The night before I go to Hof's Hut for dinner with the family and get a french dip with a baked potato. The day before I wear a t-shirt from another race to motivate me. The morning of, I watch bad reality TV while eating breakfast and have espresso Gus instead of coffee so I don't have to pee as much. I also check my bike tires immediately, since I have a tire explosion the morning of my first tri. Last but not least...it's all about the Offspring while I driving to the race. I can see where Rage would be good, but I'm all about the Offspring! "
