Warm up, register and no relaxation…


I was up early and at the pool by 9:00 am to do a 500 meter pre race swim. When I got back, I drove the Family to Disney’s water park. My sister is a “drill” sergeant and insisted that we leave as early as possible, she doesn’t like sitting around.

After dropping them off, I went back to the condo and did a quick pre race 15 minute bike ride and a 15 minute run. Afterwards, I put my bike in the van, picked up John and his bike, and headed to the Disney race site to check in our bikes and pick up our race packets.

Once we were done, I dropped John off and went back to the condo. I was craving whole wheat pancakes. We can’t get whole wheat pancake mix at home and I picked some up here and was really looking forward to eating them and had to have them.

I had to hustle, as I only had 20 minutes to make and eat the pancakes because I had to pick up the family from Disney at 5:00 pm.

We had a later dinner and I filled up on more pasta. When I got home, I did a pre race body shave and got to bed by 10:30 pm and it took me until 12:30 am to fall asleep. I kept thinking of the race and my strategy.

Oh, I almost forgot...HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM!!!!
