It took me 15 minutes in T1 to stop shivering. I need a warmer wetsuit. Maybe I will try the Aqua Sphere wetsuits next year. For those of us who took the 5 o'clock bus, the porta potty lines were an hour long which made me one of those who was still on the dry land ramp when the gun went off. Also the wind really picked up picked up for those that were behind you on the second loop. I was one of those who nearly froze to death during the swim.

You had me hanging on every word! Bummed that we didn't get the bike part of the story immediately following, but I'm sure it's worth waiting for. And as a side note; you are a lot of work, what with the pooping and the forgetting, the runner must have patience! Excellent story! You had me hanging on every word!

Great job. I love to swim, but that type of swimming sounds terrifying! Wonder if all the participants had as insulating of a wetsuit as you two, what would the results look like? Looking forward to the next installment:) IronLemmings….lol! Great job. I love to swim, but that type of swimming sounds terrifying!

What a swim! Though I say I'll never be able to do an Ironman, I just bookmarked the site for the wetsuits. Which is how it starts, I'm sure. Awesome! What a swim!
