Veteran 148 Germantown, 'Sconsin | Subject: RE: Who's competing in Door County? Someone reported on the DC Tri Facebook page a water temp of 80 @ Murphy's Park. I grew up swimming there, so that could be very accurate. However, continue to keep an eye on this as any North wind will push in the colder water. I have never known the waters to stay at 80 consistantly in that bay....just too open to the main body of water. |

| New user 11 Green Bay, WI | Subject: RE: Who's competing in Door County? I'll be there. It's my first HIM. I volunteered last year, handing out medals, and somehow thought it looked like a fun challenge, despite the weather. I won't be fast, but I think I'll be able to finish. On July 4, I did a mock tri up at Murphy Park. I swam the swim, or what I thought was close to it, biked the course, and did 6.5 miles of the run, including the bluff. It was 98 degrees, and I finished without feeling sick. My husband was there every 1.5 miles or so with ice, so that helped a lot. I hope they have ice on the course this year.

| New user 11 Green Bay, WI | Subject: RE: Who's competing in Door County? As for water temperatures, I talked to the assistant race director at the East GB YMCA yesterday, and he said the temp was about 74 degrees on Saturday when they had a training day at Murphy Park. I hope it's not over 77 because I want to use the wetsuit I bought! |

Regular 126 Wisconsin | Subject: RE: Who's competing in Door County? Anyone know how the waves were assigned? My wife and I were assigned wave 1 which appears to be pro / elite... I did register us AFTER the race was said to be filled so maybe that had something to do with it?

| New user 11 Green Bay, WI | Subject: RE: Who's competing in Door County? Weird. I'd email the race director if you don't want that. A girl in my tri training group was accidentally assigned wave 1 instead of wave 11 and they switched her. |

| 2 | Subject: RE: Who's competing in Door County? I'm in!! Can't wait. How is the bike course - I did Racine last year... anyone have a comparison? I'm slow at all 3 legs of the race but have endurance for some reason. See you all there!! |

| New user 11 Green Bay, WI | Subject: RE: Who's competing in Door County? I have biked the course twice. I've never done Racine, so I don't have a comparison, but I'm not very fast or efficient on my bike and I liked it. It's pretty flat until about mile 26, then there's a small hill, then it kind of just rolls until the end. There's a series of smaller hills around miles 43-47, too. But they're not bad and if it's not windy I think it can be a pretty good course. From what I've heard, it's the run part that's the most challenging. But it seems like they're going to have a lot of ice and fluids on the course. I'm getting pretty excited! |

Veteran 148 Germantown, 'Sconsin | Subject: RE: Who's competing in Door County? And for those interested in Water Temps...it seems the combination of rain and wind have altered the temps at Murphy Park a bit......to the tune of 17 degrees. Water Temp = 60 degrees this morning. Get those wet suits ready...gonna be AWESOME!!!! |
