Off to the races!!

Tomorrow morning we leave for Kelowna.
We'll be up at 4:30am to get things packed up and at the pool for a swim at 6:00 am, back home to pick up the bikes and Baby, tie up some loose ends and then onto the 11:00am Ferry. Into Kelowna around 5:00pm, with a quick bike ride for me to loosen up the legs after driving.

It's been a long time since I've had a week to have fun. I race on Sunday and then I'm on holidays. I will try and hit the links a couple of times and maybe hook up with the team I train with to ride the Ironman course on Saturday. Riding the course is something that a lot of athletes do if they are going up to spectate and support others in their big race on Sunday. It is aways a social ride with some fun racing up the big climbs. Othersise It's all about Tammy on the 24th.

Ironmans are the premier event in triathlon because they are so hard. After the huge disappointment in Couer D' Alene when Tammy got a nasty stomach virus the night before the race and could not start, she has put a lot of her hopes in a good performance in Penticton. I have to say, she is as fit as I've ever seen her and she will be pushing herself to her limits out on the course. I have a route planned out to catch her at all the key points so me and Baby (our dog) can try to make her smile for a second. Should be a blast, I'm looking forward to it.
I will post the links to results when the races are over.
