    I wonder what Wahine is doing today?? I'm sure she has that sparkly bracelet on by now, and is fully immersed in all things Iron.

    Update

    I arrived in Penticton today. I'm pretty mellow. No flashy braclet yet...that's tomorrow. I'm heading out for a short swim and a bike to try out my new 2XU suit that my run coach gave me yesterday. It's really hot and I'd love to wear it but... you know what they say about last minute changes. However, at first try it really is more comfortable than what I have. And, it's an Athletes for the Cure suit. So I'm supporting a good cause by wearing it.

    Hmmmmmm, I shall test drive things tonight.

    If I change outfits, I'll try to post a pic.

    Turns out I have WiFi at the hotel.

    Off to do more Ironmanly things!!

    PS It turns out I won't be able to take the laptop with me on Sunday. It is actually my son's laptop and he took it with him to his dad's... Looks like you have access to IM updates online anyway though. Good luck Cassie!

    This is quite intriguing!

    If you meet up with anyone from Port Angeles, tell them I'm cheering them on! There are several there, including one man who will be competing despite cancer in several areas and chemo off and on this year. Both he and his wife will be competing. They are REALLY nice people. Don't want to publish their names here. Might PM you.

    bracelet

    Hi,

    The bracelet she's referring to is the one that has your race number on it. Normally they give it to you at rego & you HAVE to wear it when you check your bike in and during the whole event.

    I got my flashy bracelet with my flashy number. Weighed in and guess what girls.......


    I'm an Athena.


    Yup it's true. Dh has started referring to me as Miss Piggy.

    Anyway, I just wanted to post really quickly. I'm feeling fabulous. Pleasantly nervous, the kind of nervous that makes you a little higher energy but doesn't keep you from sleeping or make you sick.

    Thanks again for being here in cyberspace for me.

    My new outfit is a go....
