let's get on with it already. i'm more then just done!
Every thing hurts, i'm always friggin' tired, either hungry, starving, eating, waiting to eat, and still HUNGRY!!!!!
It's kind of freaky that the big dance is a whole 22 sleeps away, and that i'm down to the final few weeks of serious training, and doing that big taper thingie. But it's weird you know, i'm really not even thinking about that, that there's a race at the end of all this training stuff....i have no idea how i'm going to feel on race morning, or race week, but right now it seem like it's just going to be another training day with 2800 of my closest friends.
3800 meters, 180k ride, 42k run....baha!........okay it's gonna be tuff, and yep i'm a little worried that my training has been a litttle slack, but whatever, let's do it.
i'm at the point where i'm just going thru my gear, know that i need new shoes, new rubber for the bike, and i could use a new set of goggles. and i've gotta get my nutrition stuff together. and i guess i'd better get that done soon-ish, cause, well i leave st albert 13 days...13 DAYZ!!...
i've been looking back at what i did to get ready for this triathlon at this point last august, and wow...i hardly trained at all last july and august. i think i had a few longer rides, but i missed a lot of training. and i don't think ifelt half as sore and tired as i do now...so maybe that's a good sign.
i've also been craving sugar a lot, lots of coke and tea. yum. i'm thinking of cutting out that stuff for the last few weeks, but i don't want to f*ck with the diet that's working, so what-ever...
the best part of this whole thing is just doing stuff. riding to and from work on thursday, running on my own, then swimming at hubbles lake with friends friday night, riding this morning, running again tomorrow morning, this is what it's all about. having fun, doing things i enjoy, with people i enjoy being with. that's life.
i've learned to love riding at night. it just seems so cool as compared to riding to work during the daylite. you have to keep your eyes open, pick your spots, figure out which intersections to ride through, run the odd red light, and keep out of the way of cars, and crazy drivers. it's a blast. i love it. maybe i'll try and find a triathlon that takes place after midnight. i'm sure the lake swim would be a bit of a challenge, but like wow huh!
anyway, a bunch more swims, rides, and runs..a few restless sleeps, a drive out to penticton, lots of feed and okanagon wine, and it's onward and upward to the big dance....and then more wine and food afterwards. i can hardly wait.
