butterflies
man, i sure do feel nervous for tomorrow. i'm not sure why exactly but if i don't find a way to calm down i'm going to make myself sick. i can't imagine what i'd be feeling if i had any chance at all to win - then again, if you are good enough to win you probably don't get all that nervous. deep cleansing breaths.
we got the house cleaned up for our racing guests due to arrive this evening. after cal went to bed, i hopped on the trainer for 50 minutes or so just to get the legs moving. i added a few 1 minute hard efforts just for fun. i feel good as of the moment so hopefully i am able to carry that into tomorrow.
one thing i haven't been good at this year is establishing a warm up routine. i like the idea of getting up and riding some the morning of race day to get the blood flowing. since i don't have a routine i feel some freedom to try something slightly different for this race so i think i might head over early, do a lap while the course is open (around 8:30), watch mike race, watch some of joe and jeff's race and then head back home to rest. then, head back around 1:30 and warm up on the trainer. we'll see if i am organized enough to do that.
anyway, wish me luck at nationals.
happy friday.
