Final race preparations...

Today, I went to the race expo and picked up my race package, bib numbers and some Clif Gels. I bumped into my coach, Phil, and checked whether I could do a swim workout this afternoon. Phil said a swim workout and a hot tub session would loosen things up a bit. I've missed a couple of swimming workouts recently which has caused my back to tighten up. After 20 minutes in the hot tub my back loosened up. The race starts at 0830 on Sunday morning so I'll have to be up early to have a couple of bowls of Vector cereal and allow for it to be completely digested. I am excited and eager to get the race over and to see how well I perform. The training over the past couple of months has been a lot of fun.
