Did our Pre-Tri Mini Tri this morning (basically we do everything like a real triathlon, at location and everything with all our gear - but we only swim, bike and run for 10 min each) and had a blast. I'm so ready. My hip is still a little wonky and I'm not quite 100% due to the norovirus this past week - but I'm as ready as I'll ever be.
I'm hoping the winds will stay out of the west which means the ocean will stay somewhat calm and jelly-fish free. Today it was clear and just beautiful - ripples of white sand below me. I felt like I was flying. I love swimming at Kailua beach, but only when the winds are out of the west!
T1/T2 sucks though. We have to run with our bikes for a quarter mile! Then mount. Then do the opposite on the way back in. Yikes! And we have a quarter mile run on the beach just before the finish. Oh well...should make for a very sloppy finish for me.
Good news is that my sausage suit (my 1 piece tri suit) isn't as tight as it was last year. Might have something to do with the 6.5 lbs I lost this week due to the sickness! Oh well. It will be back I'm sure!
Have a great weekend everyone. I'm hydrating and resting up for the early morning start and swim/bike/run tomorrow morning!
