Tired and Taper!

Im dead tired at the moment. Its been getting worse over the last couple of weeks. However its taper time! The hard work is over and its time to take it a bit easier.

I got the information from Ironman today and boy are there a lot of rules. If I break 3 I get DQ'd whats that all about! Its a new rule for Ironman this year. The intro goes: Welcome from the race director, Welcome from the Mayor of Tempe and then a welcome from the head referee. There are a lot of ways to get DQ'd especially if you are new to the event. I am concerned about 4 bike lengths behind the bike in front. That's hard to judge as a newbie. It used to be 2 lengths but a professional complained a few years ago and now we all have it. Then you have 20 seconds to close that gap and complete a pass.

I'm not really competing but rather participating in what I hope is a fun event. Here is hoping I don't fall foul of a rule.

A lot more info in the document but in the first 5 pages its loaded with how not to finish that Ill read the rest later. Im specifically interested in. Changing rooms and special bags.
