Ahh yes the paranoia of not being prepared enough is starting to set in. I decided to add another 100 mile work out. First I decided to swim in lake CdA. Holy Moly's....very cold. 49 degrees. Very wavey. I am glad it was wavey as it appeared like the washing machine effect as seen during IronMan on TV...except no flailing arms and legs of the Mass Start. After one mile swim, I did one full loop of the course with two spins through the back course. The end of Lancaster road is really broken up, and was the only bad part of the course asphalt. Very windy and this help add some difficulty in my workout. Wind gusts of 30mph. I ran out of food and hydration and this reminded me on how important this is for the race. I have 3 more workouts of about 3-4 hours planned. After Tuesday, I will be decreasing my daily workouts to 30-90 mins. This will be 12 days prior to the race. No carbonated beverages. No alcohol. Better food selection. Bike to the shop. Start to plan my Transition bags. etc
Have a great day!
