Just FYI, this is neither my first nor longest race. I just rarely race in weather between 30-60 degrees.

But as of race morning, it's raining and snowing, 32 degrees with 20+ mph winds. "Feels like" 20. white out conditions on the drive down. It's a day for tights and arm earners under a light long-sleeved top.

The race directors forgot safety pins for the numbers & told us to just put them in our pockets. I don't think I have a pocket, but I'll figure something out!
