I got the same email. I really hope I get to compete the Half. I registered late and I'm scared I might not make the cut if they do not get enough volunteers. There is also the Full IM starting right before the half. I wonder if they got a similar email? Last news I got there were around 40 athletes registered for it, maybe more by now. We would all be on the bike course at the same time.

I just looked at the weather. Forecast is 18 degrees and 20mm of rain. This might convince a few to cancel.
