and all through the house, there's last minute packing - I feel like a louse!
Seriously, I'm a bundle of nerves. We tried to ride the course last night and it poured so we didn't get very far. Now my shoes are soaked - how do I get them to dry out fast? I have my nervous runs already (sorry if tmi), and I can't sit still. Any good relaxation tips out there? I was so gun shy out there last night after my last couple of falls it was pitiful. The course length is 12.3 miles. We are riding in a 4 x 12 hour mountain bike race and I'll have my 3 yo with me (cuz it's my rare weekend with him or I would have made arrangements for him to be elsewhere).
I am taking half a day off of work so I can ride the course this afternoon. I just really need to know what's coming at me out there - I don't want any surprises. I'll keep you posted Monday with results and hopefully a picture or two.
