    IMAZ Apparel Choice...

    So today on a ride I FINALLY figured out what I'm going to wear in this years race. And why it took me so long I have no idea??! It' s actually kind of a no brainer.
    I'm going to wear my AV sleeveless jersey!

    This morning on our ride we were battling the wind. I was wearing the jersey and happened to look down at a tough moment. I then said out loud to no one in particular " Amici Veloce my ASZ!!!!!!" and it just made everything so much better. For that brief moment I didn't care about the wind. I was too busy cracking myself up..

    I was thinking about it, and by wearing the jersey it will be like you are all there racing with me.
    And if I'm lucky the AV jersey will be seen crossing the finish line of an Ironman!! Is that a first??
    Another plus is the bright color will be easy to spot in a crowd. Not like I "blend" that well anyway..heh heh heh

    Awesome! If it motivates you, then I say go for it!

    I may wear my hot pink long-sleeve Canari shirt from TE; it is really thin and cool, and my family can see it a mile away! Still waiting for my Jaggad jersey to come so I can test it; hopefully this weekend!

    It was windy for me here too; and I was forced to ride my 100 alone....I have never done this before and it sucked! But my choice was go alone or don't go. And I was worried that waiting till next weekend was just too close to the race to go that long.

    I got home at 6 pm so no transition run!

    How did your ride go?

    That's a cool thing to wear for your Ironman and it is very bright.

    Ohh Laura, I like both of those!

    Funny, we were going to do another hundred. But both of us got up and wanted nothing to do with being on the bike that long!
    So we went 50 and then ran for an hour in the 90 degree heat..
    The run went well, so I think I'm ready. umm... I think..
    I didn't melt into a puddle of goo, so I take that as a good thing.

    For some reason, I always ride faster in my sleeveless AV Jersey. Seriously. Maybe you will have that luck?

    Long tri shorts

    I have to stay out of the sun as much as possible and plan to do a tri this summer. I already have long sleeve summer weight jerseys and typically wear at least a below the knee bike short when riding. Does anyone know of a comfortable lightly padded tri short that is at least to the knee?

    I know it may not be fashionable, but you gotta do what you gotta do.
