I'm all registered and ready to go. Hit the water yesterday and today. It's cold, but manageable.
Yesterday:
Jumped in the water and got an ice cream headache. It was windy and choppy so I didn't linger.
Stood in a heinus line for registration- you would think they would have this down to an art??
Got my sparkly participant bracelet.
Bought a couple of cute tops and a jersey from "IM swag R us"- aka the merchandise tent.
Had a couple recognize me from my you tube video
Chatted with Michelie Jones ( LOVE HER)
Went to a talk given by Michael Lovato (hottie) last evening. Spoke w/ him briefly afterwards and told him about the video- he's actually in it as well. DANG he's a funny guy! We were laughing the entire time.
His take away message was "it's suppose to be FUN! So if your not having fun, why do it??!!"

Today:
Back to swim. Much smoother today, but lots of traffic- had to watch for oncoming traffic.. ugh
Talked to some reps. Being a bike shop owner now you kind of have to.
OH-
This morning I was chatting w/ the Quintana Roo guys when Heather Golnick came by. She's sponsored by them and they have her on a custom pink and grey Dolce- which is the new womens version of my bike. I got to chat w/ her (LOVE HER TOO), and even had her autograph something for the shop.
I WANT her bike in a serious way! Even the ZIPP stickers on her wheels are pink! SWEET!!!
Had some Bakers double chocolate granola - YUM- Paula Newby-Fraser likes it too! She was having some for breaky.
decided I needed to wonder home to get my bags ready. Tonight is the dinner, and tomorrow is bike/bag check in.
So just had some lunch, and now I'm off. My friend Michelle is a professional photographer. She was with me yesterday and captured my day on film. She added them to my IMAZ 08 album on photobucket.
I'll also add my Heather Golnick pics.
