The director of the race called me tonight to let me know he's changing the mountain bike course a bit. He knows I'm doing my last pre-ride tomorrow and he wants me to bring my garmin and give him the new mileage.

I guess someone at XTerra was complaining that the tri was too run-heavy and that he had to increase the bike portion. Do they know how technical and hilly this loop is? It's probably the most challenging loop in MI. I can already give a guess on how long the new loop is because I have ridden it before.

Here are the new distances:

1,000 meter swim
15-16 mile mountain bike (all hills and technical )
6.5 mile run

I'm going to die. Somewhere between the bike and the run, I. will. die.
