Possibly the funniest T2 ever.....

For all of us... it's not a matter of "if"....  it's just a matter of "when".  

 I had a pretty poor one in my last race as well.

Feet out of shoes on the ride in, get off that the dismount line,

hear a cry from a marshall "You've lost a shoe"

Thought f* it, I'll pick it up at the end

Proceed to fail to put my running shoes on not once, not twice by three times (insole kept crunching up)

run into another racer on the way out (because he was running to the run exit, I was running to the bike exit) turn round

get half way to the run exit and realise I'm still wearing a bike helmet. 

Go back and chuck bike helmet into transition bag, miss completely (but it's under the racks, and not in anyone's way) then finally get on with my run.

Fortunately the kind mashal looked after my lost bike shoe till the end of the race for me

Reebok last year.  Wondering where the heck were my earplugs. oh, well.  Coming in to T1, something jammed in my bike shoe.  what the.... oh, it's my earplugs.  Spent a minute trying to get jammed in earplugs out of bike shoe.

Reebok this year.  Coming into T1, swim cap, goggles, watch (it had come off) down.  Bike shoes on.  Ummm..... funny.  Hey, these aren't my shoes!  hey, this ain't my helmet... or my bike.  oop!!

Quickly leave.  Found my bike.  Dang, I left my stuff over there.  Go back, retrieve cap, goggles, watch.  Back to my bike.  T1 time: 3 minutes and change.

T2: couldn't get out of one bike shoe. Ran with one shoe, it wasn't working, so stopped and took it off. 

I think Reebok is cursed for me as far as T's go.

Funniest T1 had to be in June when I was in the first wave due to my high placing from the previous year.  I come running out of the water, across the beach and trip over the little rise between the beach and grass.  I did major face plant right in front of athletes waiting for later waves.  Talk about embarassing!  (How did this clutz end out in the "elite" wave???) Same race the year before I slipped on the grass trying to get out of my wetsuit, and landed on my a$$.  At least that time I was first in from the swim on my rack, and I was in a random wave so nobody saw me.

T2 has always been much kinder to me.  Less complications! Though my first triathlon I almost ran with my helmet on.  I couldn't get it off and somebody had to help me.  This was in 1983 and things were simpler.  In fact I think the helmet may have been a loaner from the race.

Oh my...this is the funniest post I've read in quite some time.  Soooooo funny.  I think after the rack started to go down, I'd have to make a stop at a porta-John to clean something up.
