According to Garmin I am lighter now than when I last squeezed into my wettie and I am about the weight I was when I bought it so should be OK!

EvilPixie May 2021 4:34pm, 12 May 2021 25,176 posts	0 EvilPixie I do love a roasty! Maybe I should put a picnic in my special needs bag LOL# Question to the experienced ... once you leave T2 and start the run can you re-enter? eg for extra layers?
fraggle May 2021 4:40pm, 12 May 2021 2,865 posts	0 fraggle I don't think so Pix, might bugger up the timing mats ? You could, ahem, leave extra layers with a friend, and whilst that friend can't hand it to you, if they were to drop it on the floor and you found it .........

Battlecat May 2021 9:16pm, 12 May 2021 5,727 posts	0 Battlecat I'm a big fan of peanut butter roll ups. Cheap bread flattened out, covered in peanut butter then cut in to quarters and roll them up into spirals. One of those every 20 minutes or so on the bike does me. They fit neatly into a top tube bag as well.
