In response to the "I miss the watching threads" thread, let's start one for the IM 70.3 WC coming up this Sunday, 9/9!  There are quite a few fast BT'ers racing.  I'll be there but don't count me as one of the fast ones!

BT name        Real name       Bib Number     what I am wearing          ETA

wbattaile       will                  1001               Zoot blue/black onesie    Tough course; 5:30 ish?

Let's see if we can keep a table like this going.

I'm just hoping to beat my Quassy time from earlier this year. Run training has been way off the past few months and I'm very susceptible to heat.

This made me LOL ... all I can think of is the baby onesie with the snaps in the crotch for diaper changes.  Then when I thought about it the snaps might be handy during a tri also.

Editted for spelling.

I'll be out there spectating...  you guys should post your wave start times as well if you can.  I'll be at the swim start but likely leaving around 7:20ish when my friend gets out of the water to head up to T2 area.

You're in Vegas?  You should have PMed me...

I went out for a long ride this weekend and saw an odd increase of tri bikes on my usual route till I quickly remembered about the race.

I can't even imagine the chafing from crotch snaps over a 70.3.....  Cool

Adding myself to the list! Looking forward to getting out to Vegas (cough, Henderson). Not sure how the heat will effect me, but I plan on taking a bottle at every aid station on the bike and multiple drinks at each run aid station, along with a bunch of SaltStick caps.

Race day tomorrow; pretty excited despite the fact that it was 107 degrees when I dropped my bike at T1. Good luck Nate and Ben, and all the other BT'ers racing. Thanks to those of you that will be out there volunteering and spectating! Stay hydrated!

The aerial view of the swim they are showing is quite neat!  (Do they do this for other races too?)
