Triathlon tip of the summer

when you pick up your timing chip at packet pick up, and you attach it to your leg immediately there after, you are LESS likely to drop it----...to drop in IT (the timing chip) into the'blue soup o poop'...AKA.. the LOU..the hopper...the port a potty.

however there IS a 10 second rule on that.

in said 10 seconds--you must decide and act on thAt decision- to leave it down in that dark hole of unmentionable goo, and cough up the $100 lost chip fee---OR-----you know.
