[gerge211]

Let it be known that any Triathlete endurance sports person is awesome in my eyes. You sir are great, you are a leaving breathing SNL skit. I'm not trying to make fun of you because I really think your awesome. Little nerdy, but so damn nice that its comical. Keep up the good work. You seriously RULE!!! Screw all these dislikes I bet if they met you in person they would have nothing but nice things to say about you. The shit edit at the end fucking kills me!!!

Looks like the folks at the Slowtwitch triathlon forum are having a little fun at your expense.

beautiful video! now one version in fast forwards?

Thx.I think you could easily shave 30 secs off that time.

1 ditch the socks if you can. I was suprised how easy it was in training. Even yesterday at 12 deg C and rain I was not cold - tons of talc helped.

2 pre-feed the velcro strap for bike shoes. if needed tie it back with single thread of cotton

3 wear trisuit, save time of jersey. use racebelt with number under wetsuit

4 Camelbak? Two bottles on bike should be fine

Happy racing!

2 It looks warm - a jersey should not be needed.

sorry forgot to say, gloves? with damp hands that is a real fiddly thing to do. Timesaving on my suggestions I estimate at socks, 12 secs, shoe straps 3 secs, no jersey 6 secs, no camelbak 5 secs, no gloves 10 secs.  36 secs saved - best of luck!

Thank you! I have been training for my first race, but I didn't have enough money to buy a bike for a while, so I'm behind on that part and think reaching for the water bottle is scary. If I use that hydration pack, can I avoid having to reach for the water bottle?

Have you got the kitchen sink with you as well you (novice)

Thank you for sharing your set up This will help me prepare for my first tri this summer. IMO I wouldn't worry about the gloves or the pack as it's only 12 miles for the average tri.
