I got zoot compressor shorts… What does everyone wear for their top?
Tight t-shirt that is super thin or some kind of tri singlet? I dont get why people wear regular tshirts cause they weigh you down after you start sweating…
Running singlet
.
Do you have some links to some running singlets? What is a good local store to get them at? My race is in two days so cant buy it online 
I have a Nike miler one, decent fit and very light. Given you appear to be in California and I’m in Canada I can’t suggest a bricks and mortar store. If you could buy online I would endorse www.Mec.ca
Wear what you ran your long runs in. Some tech shirts chafe people and you don’t want that on race day.

This. its generally a bad idea to wear something new (untested) on race day. It’s like trying a new Indian restaurant for your pre race meal.
You are totally over thinking this. You put on some running short, your shoes, and a tech shirt you got from a previous race…done.
You don’t need compression, tighty, whatever shorts. I wouldn’t go run in a cotton t-shirt, but any tech shirt from a previous race or some under armour shirt from your local sporting good store will work just fine. Just run and have fun, your training will determine your time, not the shorts or shirt you wear.

Yes, compression shorts, tight tri singlet preferably from some WTC race, high white socks, WTC finishers hat. What the hell, you might as well look like the rest of the triathletes.

This nailed it. Except PLEASE don’t be the guy “flaunting” a finishers shirt from some random race like they’re a badass.

This.
On any run longer than ~10 miles I need to check the weather. If its going to be hot (or raining) then the potential for the shirt to get very wet and start chafing is high. I would wear a compression shirt, with (maybe) a regular tech shirt on top.
If I dont think I am going to be sweating a lot, just any tech shirt works fine.
