Wow:
I had my last hard day on Tuesday. I swam in lake Cda for 2.2 miles and then rode my bike on one loop(56miles) of the course. My legs were very tired and the traffic in Cda was bad at lunch time. My leg fatigue probably came from the 1 hour bike and 2 hour run 48 hours before. They have sprayed off the course round, and I did not find any gravel on the road. I have lots of minor aches and pains and I look forward to the tapering workouts of the next 10 days. My bike is in the shop for new tires and a tune up. I cant believe I have put 1,500 miles on my bike since January. I am watching the weather like a hawk. While I would normally like warm weather, I am acclimated to this cooler weather and a hot race day could be even more difficult.
The CdA IM just posted my number on their web site: I am number 2230. My brother from Colorado, and my sister from Michigan are coming to throw water on me:-) We are starting to make arrangements for the big weekend. I will be taking Friday off to participate in IM activities and pick my son up from Boyscout camp. My daughters will coming home from "Girls State" in Boise on Saturday. Family from around North Idaho will be coming to Cda to cheer me on if they can find me.
More later.
