Golden bikes

I can pee in all three disciplines, although on the bike requires a little more thought for some reason.

When doing it on the bike it's best to rinse with some fresh water to avoid the burn later.

So anyone fessing up to a pee at the awards ceremony then. Seems like most other parts are covered.

 Just in case for the newbie's best to keep your mouth shut if you are overtaking someone on a hill or you might get some extra nutrition you didn't want.

Thank f*ck there's no hills in the Outlaw swim! 

and never swim behind me as i can't stop myself peing numerous times in the swim............I drink lake water constantly and it has to get out somewhere

I went about 20 times on the marathon at IMW - that's probably 20-25 minutes lost on the run alone just jumping in and out of portaloos! That's why I want to work out how to do it whilst running!!

GB - just let go - it's as simple as that.  I think most of the hang up is psychological than physical.  although if you're running well, like swimming, your core will be tight so you need to learn how to relax the core to let go

I think that is exactly the problem! What was also annoying was that because of the extremely high frequency - it was getting uncomfortable having to wait to get to the next portaloo.

At least at the Outlaw there is a massive lake and then a river I could just go into

i had a similar number of loo stops on the run at IMW - i think we both overdid the nutrition 

I think there was just something in the water!

errrm -  I only had one pee during IMW and that was as I came out of T2.  perhaps I got my hydration wrong....

Wasn't it Candy who had peed on the bike forgetting that his bento box was attached to the seat stem rather than handlebar stem. Seem to remember he only noticed once he'd tried a couple of slices of slightly bleached maltloaf.

I'm sure someone from the Pirate ensemble peed in transition once, sadly on a dry day before the swim so rather obvious I guess...

I think the esteemed pirate king noticed his error before eating any of the affected items.

One of the highlights from JD's IMDE report from 2006 was him successfully describing a (possibly first time) T1 'on the move' pee to the soundtrack of 'what have you done today to make you feel proud'.

I know Candy peed in his wetsuit in one of his first Ironman races.

Except he didnt wait until he was in the water - he was on a bone dry concrete slipway. Nice flow of pee running past his fellow athletes feet.

that was me - and mentioned it on a previous page

Oops! Thought Debbo had done so too thinking about it, what do I know...?

I remember a bloke at Cheter Oly last year wetting his suit during the safety briefing on the pavement near the bandstand. Just stood there, listening politely, with his arms folded, while a pool of his piss accumulated around his feet and spread. Classy.

you don't need to stand close to me then pre-race - that's usual for me as well.  often more than once.....
