Bella, welcome to the boards, and thanks so much for posting about this tri. My goal is to do this race next year, my first 1/2 IM. I've done 3 Olys and 4 sprints so far, my next Oly is Pleasant Prairie in Kenosha, on 8/20.

I always have GI problems, in part due to my endometriosis. I take 2 Imodium before every race, and I've been fine. (knock wood)

If you haven't done so, please post a race report, either here or in the race reports board--the more details the better--we eat 'em up! L.
