4 days.

holy shit, i'm starting to freak a little.

ok, i'm better now. freak isn't the correct term, i'm really excited. i have not felt this way, to this degree, since the twin cities marathon of 1997. moutain biking is really fun, but it happens so often that it becomes everyday business. oh, another mountain bike race, oh boy. although i still do get pretty psyched for fat tire. i still felt wasted yesterday, so i opted for a day off. at this point, the only "gain" to be had is pushing myself into full blown illness which would be stupid. i woke up today groggy but i'm feeling more and more like myself throughout today. i may be imagining things, but it seems there are a lot of people sick here this week. stay the hell away from me suckas...

i'm going to run tonight, bike tomorrow night. hopefully i'll get a ride in before i pack the bike up thursday morning and then poof, we're heading west. friday, i'd really like to swim a bit in the chill and then run for a short while on some of the course. time permitting, i'd also like to drive the bike course.

then it's time to jam. there is an article about the race on 'insidetriathlon.com.' even though it's the pro long course championship, there are very few pros signed up. turns out the prize money is bad, the world championships are around the same time as kona, and there are a couple other high profile races going on the same weekend. oh well, there are over 500 age groupers signed up so i'll have plenty of company.

that's all i've got right now. tonight i'll be heading to rei for some gu and body glide. sounds a little racey. it is i guess, but not that kind...
