22 Days, but who's counting?

So Ironman sent out the athlete email for Ironman Wisconsin today. This freaks me out. I wasn't really nervous before. But now I am really nervous. I read every word of all 37 pages.

My favorite line from the Athlete's Guide: No form of locomotion other than running, walking or crawling is allowed.

Hysterical... Kinda.

So I must be ready for this. I've been training forever, doing all the right things. I was going to write "Eating all the right things" but that's not exactly true. But for the next 4.5 weeks I will be eating all the right things. But I've trained. I've put the time in. I'm tired all the time, I sleep like a rock, my swim is pretty darn good, my bike is strong and my run is kind of a hobble.

You can't be great in all three sports, right?

Decided to share a room with Mom/Dad and E for race weekend. This may turn out to be a big mistake, but it will save me lots of $$$.

OMG, the next 4 weeks are going to be the longest EVER....
