		<description>Fatty, by the time you read my comment(next week) if ever, this will be moot. So for the next tri you should compile a complete list of the readers&#039; suggestions, throw caution to the wind, and let the drama unfold. I like the blue gummies mentioned somewhere above...but in the shoes for a test run  several days in advance. This is for a foot fitting form. You would need a size 1/2 larger.
As for Tequila Sunrise...hummmm, I &#039;see&#039; you staggering to the finish line with a touch too much of the former and the sun is setting.</description>

		<description>Variety is the spice of life - or so they say. But maybe a little too much &#039;spice&#039; may cause you blisters. 
I like your risk profile and the way you have made light of the PRAT rule. 

And if you don&#039;t know already a PRAT or being a PRAT is very common in some parts of the UK where it means someone who is a major idiot, silly or dumb - In a sentence &#039;Like don&#039;t be a prat&#039;

Hope it all worked out!</description>

		<description>The obvious answer about the shoes is to be scientific about it.  Run with the old shoe on the left foot and the new shoe on the right foot.  If the sole thickness is a bit different you may have to reorient your direction every 100 yards or so otherwise you&#039;ll end up running in a very big circle.

Good luck!</description>

		<description>Fatty
Listen, I rode an event last weekend with a new cassette and chain. It was the rear spokes that let me down and try were not new. Besides remember your last name, Cyclist, get a hold of your inner Jensy and just say &quot; shut up legs&quot;!</description>

		<description>I can&#039;t imagine running without socks. I never get blisters on my feet and I walk barefooted a lot, even outside because I grew up in the boonies and still live in the boonies, but I&#039;ve worn shoes without sock and it feels bad and the soles of my feet get really hot and sticky without my even moving. I know a lot of running don&#039;t wear socks, but I can&#039;t understand why (other than the obvious speed benefits in transition. I&#039;m talking about pure runners who do this).</description>
