    Uh ... 57.7 this AM by my measurement; a bunch of us went in at 8:30 and commiserated with each other afterwards. The wind was worse than the cold, tho.

    And I was trying to decide if 40 was too cold to swim in Lake Michigan after work today!  57 sounds balmy image

    Good luck Team EN!



    Everyone has to deal with the conditions, but remember X/B1 and you'll execute correctly no matter what the day brings!



    Have fun and enjoy that finish line!

    Go Team! Rest well today and then execute for the gipper! I'm getting the heebie jeebies thinking about that water temperature. Vaseline on the face and back of the hands helps.

    Have fun.   My first iron was there a couple years ago.    Cold and wavey swim.   But fun.        Looks like the air temp should be perfect for the run.

    Good luck everyone. I have a feeling it's going to be a great EN day.

    Good luck to the EN crew - you guys are going to rock it! Looking forward to Al get recovery of the year award.

    I've also got a friend that lives a few miles away from me doing the race too with a special story, he was in a bike accident and was fully paralyzed, but managed to recover a lot of his functions. You can read about John Carson here: http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/06/24/the-last-ironman/ - he was interviewed by slowtwitch last year around the time he did LP.

    Have a great day everyone. Follow your plan, stay in your box and remember that we do this for fun (at least most of us do). You'll all look like rock stars crossing that line.
