The weather was “memorable”. When Bill and I were setting up our transition stations (run to bike) the temp was 32 degrees, but at least it was dry. On the bus ride up the Beartooth highway the temperature started dropping and by the time we reached the starting line it was snowing. Back in Red Lodge after the 8.8 mile run, the temp had dropped, wind (head wind) picked up and we had snow/sleet mixed. At the transition to bike I put on a wicking shirt, a wool long sleeve shirt, our long sleeve jersey, our vest, a wind/rain coat, and a rain jacket. This was comfortable for the 43 mile bike portion of the race. In the first mile, feet were soaked. Rode almost all the race with hand warmers. About half way thru the race it quit snowing – never really warmed up. After race Bill and I sat in my brother’s hot tub in Billings for about half an hour.
