Well. I got up early and swam before I was awake. Always a good thing. So now I'm mellow because I already blew out the cobwebs. I got lots of great hugs and "good Lucks" from the masters group and my swim coach gave me the last bit of advice.

So far this AM I am fine.

DH and I will pack up tomorrow morning. The plan is to sleep as long as I like, have a leisurely coffee and slowly load up the XTerra. We're only driving half way tomorrow, about 4 hours, then we'll camp. It should be pretty low key. At some point tomorrow I will do a short bike/run workout with mini intervals to wake up my neurons.

Thursday we'll head up to Penticton the rest of the way.

We are taking our lap top but we may have a little trouble finding someplace to get a wireless signal. So hopefully I'll have internet access but I'm not sure. I will be trying to post. On race day....????? If we can figure out a way, we'll try to set up an update thread. Maybe I can convince someone who'll be around a computer to post if DH sends some texties. Any takers? PM me. That of course also depends on if DH can learn to text.

So all's well so far. I have to pick up my bike from the shop today. I forgot my wallet at home. thank god for small towns, I'm sure they'll let me pick up and call them back later with my credit card info.

Well, off to try to focus on my job. About 10 hours from now I'll be free to think of nothing but all Ironman all the time.
