Tubs tuffo pro s33 not really a race tub but does for me. Max 175psi I go about 150 as that's all I can manage even when using a track pump. 

70 miles in rain, thunder, lightning, hail, high winds and bright sunshine yesterday. So that's all my race kit options thoroughly tested and I can honestly say it all works

3hrs run today no idea of miles as garmin went flat 2 hrs in but I was at 9 miles then so a good pace for me.

Now I just need some good swims as furthest i've done us 1.2 miles and a good ride at flat out in the fens and I'll be set.

I'm gearing up for a mega last peak week.  With lack of swim miles I plan on carrying those on right up until thurs before the race. Do you think that will be OK? 

SS I spent a lot of money on a women's gore oxygen cycle jacket. Not the one in wind stopper material but the full gore lifetime warranty one. Wore it for 70 miles last sat after putting it over soaking wet tri gear after a mile lake swim. When I finished the ride my top was dry under it so it's got to be very breathable!I also wore it on a hot a rainy morning and it was waterproof with the mearest hint of boil in the bagness. I then have DHB vaeon leg and arm warmers, wore the arm warmers last weekend under my jacket but haven't trialed the leg warmers out yet. Testing new cycling shorts today as my tri ones I wore holes through on the half at the back top of each leg no where near the pad so want something more comfy for the full.

I'm in leccy world to which is very nice as that's where we were for the half. For the half there was a group of non competitions who were up singing until 2am race morning which I reall didn't appreciate better pack ear plugs this time ! 

Very sorry to hear this SD my sister is in the same position and I've yet to hear from another friend who I think also finds out today.
