Too hot for me too. Stomach/GI issues midway through a solid (though well paced) bike split landed me in the med tent. This sucks. Certainly the worst/lowest I have felt in this sport and it’s up there in terms of “life challenges.” All the preparation, planning, money, opportunity costs sum up to three letters: D N F.
Officially 91 in Madison today. I just got back a few minutes ago, saw the weather during half time of the packers game at Madison’s grill on my way out.
Did that this year @ IMC…i feel your pain. PB swim, PB bike, and the heat and the flu got to me on the run, wrecked my GI system…pulled out at the 1/2 marathon point…
I was volunteering in crosse plaines, alot of competitors not looking good, I saw a lot of distressed looks on the first loop! Not only did they have to deal with the heat but also the wind. But Frank Farrar (77 year old?) was looking strong! I thought today would boost me over the edge to sign for next year, but now im 50/50.
The computer on my bike said 99 on the way back from Verona about 1:30pm. ouch. Now it was a bit high because it’s in the sun, but so was my head so i can understand why i have a head-ache today.
Holy crap it was tough conditions out there. I saw a few very strong triathletes not leave T2 - or just leave and walk right back in. On the way to Mt. Horeb and on the way into Verona there were a couple sections where I think there were probably wind gusts of up to 30mph. pretty sustained at 15+
