Those look like internal pockets to me.
Great storage solution.
But how are you getting at that without unzipping past the breastbone

I had no idea about this. Ironman 70.3 official guys at the finishing chute frantically waving at me and stopping me, telling me to zip my tri suit up

Youāre lucky you didnāt get a penalty, young man 
At Outlaw one year some guy went sub10 in a two piece and got a penalty taking him over 10 hours.
The penalty was due to the gap being too large in the suit.
He then went APOPLECTIC and got a DQ 
This all kicked off in the shower rooms.
I felt bad for him, but you canāt shout at officials (he later apologised profusely, poor lad, overcome with race emotions)
Yet another reason why completely irrelevant time goals suck! Just cos we all like round numbers!

I reckon I might do a T2 change on Sunday and swap into a vest (leaving tri shots on of course). If Iām out there runing for ages I may as well get rid of these tan lines half way up my arm.

Nah, thatās a Belgian lottery if it works 
Mind you, it got rid of some Mapei tile adhesive for me.
But left my Hansgrohe taps and Bora cooker hood in a right old mess.
I also got a bit on my Alpecin shampoo bottle, but that wiped off easily enough with an Ineos sanitary wipe.
It is however, excellent at removing Mapei floor adhesive from Quick-Step alpha vinyl floor tiles 
You can buy it from Jewsonās - which is part of the Gobert group

It must be getting realā¦ Iām writing lists! 
Mrs GB - I thought you were worried about exercising too soon after Covid? You said you knew people that struggled for longer after going back too soon. Thatās what you were saying.
Me - err yeah, I did say that.
Mrs GB - so youāre going to go to the Cotswolds this weekend to race.
Me - 
yeah.
Mrs GB - alone. So no way of getting home if something happens.
Me - itāll be fine.
Mrs GB - butā¦
Me - itāll be fine. Iām not gonna race āthatā hard. Probably.
Mrs GB - have you seen the forecast for the weekend?
Me - 
aye. Itāll be fine.
Mrs GB - 
youāre not right.
