Athlete Tracker for Beach 2 Battleship

Posted on 05:48 by Unknown

Last night, I ran screaming into the ocean in the dark. Naked. There wasn't anyone around and I knew it would give me luck for race day. The ocean and I have a relationship. And I'm going to swim 2.4 miles in the salty ocean water tomorrow morning.



I am already highly impressed with PPD Beach 2 Battleship. We arrived (after an 11 hour drive) just in time for the expo and athlete dinner. They had everything we needed along with friendly and funny volunteers. The food was spectacular.



This morning looks like this:



-wake up, no coffee

-sit on balcony in chair swing, no coffee

-freak out a little about the crazy wind gusts, drink plain hot water

-a short run to loosen up and shake off the cobwebs, yoga

-a 20-30 min spin on the bike to check in and to make sure everything is in tip top shape

-come home, set everything out for tomorrow

-perfect pre-race dinner

-walk on the beach

-bed



And here is your link to follow the race tomorrow: http://t.co/FV0GbGOm



I am bib #3, John is #1, and Augie is #133.



Oh, and the photo is of my race face.



AAAAAAHHHHHH!!! One more sleep! I can't wait to race!
