1 - they would have used stamps for the race numbers - but i agree - very well placed!
2 - yes, short shorts....I just wonder if he rode with this number on (egads! chaffing!) and again - then the run! oiy!
3 - you gotta think, eh? i'd be worried about them falling off!! ha!

UGHHHHHHHH. Look at his leg tan-line from presumably his bike shorts. They're kinda short too even for tri shorts. :?

If all that you read is everything you believe then let go, then let go, then let go.

Nothing will change if you never choose.

Yah, he had an almost hour long swim (57 minutes and change), might explain some of the shrinkage :shock:
