    What specific question do you have about bibs and compression shirts?

    @MNLittleFinn If the bib is the kind that glues on you should still use pins anyway

    Today was hot. And damp. An one point I started exhaling steam, just like in the winter. The temp was around 75 degrees. And I was becoming a steam locomotive. Choo Choo. I was pretty sure I was still dreaming cause that shouldn't be possible right?

    I'm thinking either that or pinning it to my shorts if I don't wear my SPI belt

    Just like heat training . Suck it up, and you'll be faster.

    Thanks!

    I did about a mile yesterday just to get out after dinner and walkabout for a bit. Today I did 3.5 miles. It's exciting to get close to my goal. Looking forward to surpassing it.

    As far as bibs are concerned, I usually pin mine to my shirt the night before (for my flat Stanley). Just one less thing to worry about in the morning. I seen people also pin it to their shorts (for the shirt-less dudes). The RD should supply pins. If you do packet pickup the day off, I usually bring an extra set of pins with me just in case. With all the races my wife and I have done, it's easy to find bib-pins in my home. Heck, I think we each have a set in the car already.
