Conditions on the course on sunday were still very icy, however, the thaw had started so we expect it to be fairly sticky by next weekend. Elsie spotted a fair few runners and bikers up on the hills near the course, nice to see people getting last minute sessions in.

We have been getting a lot of grief for not providing the Tub of Love at ICEBREAKER,  so to make amends we have 2 hot tubs in transition area.  However, they can only be used on the proviso that you clean off the worst of the filth in the icy cold paddling pools first.    Usual Tubbing rules apply: 

The first rule of Tub of Love is: you do not talk about tub of love. 

The second rule of Tub of Love is: you DO NOT talk about Tub of Love! 

Third rule of Tub of Love: someone yells "stop!", goes limp, taps out, the tub is over. 

Fourth rule:what goes in the tub stays in the tub. 

Fifth rule: one tub at a time. Sixth rule: No shirts, no shoes. 

Seventh rule: tubbing will go on as long it has to. 

And the eighth and final rule: if this is your first time at the tub of love. You have to tub (with apologies to tyler durden)

Mud Masters the list will be updated later today.  If your name is not on the list don't panic, provided we can find your name on fhe results list for the 2 previous races then you will qualify
