Two days to the Triathlon. I am now officially freaking out.
It’s been pouring rain, lightning and thunder all night into this morning. I am obsessively checking the Weather.com forecast for Pleasant Prairie this weekend. So far it looks like thunderstorms Saturday, sunny Sunday.
Mostly I am concerned about the logistics – getting to the swim start and from the swim finish without my glasses, for instance. Or biking in slightly soggy shorts. I don’t have sports sunglasses, just my hipster prescription shades which tend to slide down my nose if said nose is sweaty. Will there be water along the running course?
Did I mention that I scheduled a work meeting in Waukesha the morning after the triathlon? So in addition to trying to prepare everything I need for the tri, I also am putting together all my workshop materials, creating my presentation, etc. This is the first meeting I’ll be facilitating in my new job, so no pressure, right?
Gad.
Good luck at the tri! A friend of mine is competing this year, and I hope to be at the starting line next year myself. I hope you have a great time.
Thanks! I don’t think of myself as “competing” so much as “participating” – that way there’s no pressure beyond simply finishing!
