Weekend is right around the corner and I'm ready to just get things going and get this party started. I really have no clue how I'll perform this weekend. My training plan has been pretty low key the past 1.5 weeks and I'm feeling pretty healthy. Breathing is good right now, calf is little tight but very manageable so we will shall see. I just looked at the weather for New Orleans area and it is currently calling for 70% chance of rain. That would suck....
I'm a little concerned right now because I am without my bike. It's currently at a bike shop getting ready for the show; however, my bike is not at my normal shop (plano cycle) because they were all booked up so I brought it to performance bike. I've bought a lot of nutritional products at performance over the years but have never used their service department so I'm a little anxious. Probably should have planned for this.
I'm currently working through my race strategy for Sunday. I'm not in good enough shape to just go for it, so I'll probably hold back most of the race until about mile 6 of the run and then I'll just let it fly. I have a history of blowing it out on the bike and then severely suffering on the run so hopefully I'll keep it together during the race and not get caught up trying to beat/keep up with others around me. Keep the ego in check on the bike. That's my motto for the day.
Got a few last minute things to pick up tomorrow and then pack and then we head to God's country on Thursday morning...

Yo, seems you never were much of a mechanic, always outsourcing... You should have let me know, I would have flown in, got my tools out of storage and fixed your bike, for a nominal service charge. Well best of luck with the competition!
Later,
Frank
