Great pictures, salsa! Especially the fish and chips

I was the pinks, which came somewhere right after the blues, which came right after Jes's red wave. Supposed to start at 7:40, closer to 7:45 or so. Was running over blues, greens, and reds toward the end... maybe there was another green wave after the reds and the blues?

In other news, that's the same suit I got, except the green/blue top. It's way more supportive than I expected, and I think I mentioned a pain in the rear to put on . I had to go to the bathroom after I put it on before the race since I had so much waiting time (my mother in law took off about 50 minutes before I did, in the third wave, mine the 20th). That was fun. At least it was before I went into the warmup zone.

In our experience, if you get there that early, you don't need to take the shuttle. We have been able to park fairly close to the race (about a block away) both of the last 2 years (before that we did the mixed group and took the shuttle), near Dakota and whatever the cross street is, 43rd? Super easy to get home from and no shuttling back and forth.
