No guilt...

I couldn't stop eating today. I'm not sure why. Maybe it's my subconscious telling me that I need to carbo-load for Sunday's race. Or it's because I was on the computer all day and had the munchies. Who knows, but what I do know, is that I ate a lot.

I decided to take today off as a taper day and I'll train Wednesday and Thursday and then that's it until race day. I can hardly wait until Rich flies in on Thursday afternoon. I spoke to him today and he's pumped. It's going to be TOO much fun.

He told me that once he got off the plane he wants to go to KFC. I asked why? and then he reminded me. When he was here last time, we had the munchies and I took the Sohor's through the KFC drive-thru moments after they closed the store. The old guy at the window said they were closed and he wouldn't even entertain giving us any chicken, heck he wouldn't even open the window. I was trying to convince him through the glass.

He gave up and walked away in disgust, but I ended up getting the attention and sweet talking one of the girls that worked there, and low and behold, she opened the window, and we got some "dirty cluck". Rich, Sharon and Davis couldn't believe I got the chicken and they bring it up often. Now I've left out some of the story to protect the innocent, namely me, but it was surreal for Rich and the family, and he joked we should do it again. Me, my approach is to create new memories, I'm sure we'll have a new KFC moment sometime this week.

Taper Day - Rest and eat like a little piggy.
