I’m starting to get ridiculously excited about my upcoming triathlon.\u00a0 I feel like I’m ready!\u00a0 I want to go now!<\/p>\n
Problem is that the race isn’t for another few weeks.\u00a0\u00a0 24 days, I believe.\u00a0 I don’t even have my Team Fight gear yet.\u00a0 Gotta get that, hope it fits, and practice in it.\u00a0 Nothing new on race day, after all.<\/p>\n
I’m excited that I’m excited about the race.\u00a0 I know that sounds weird, but usually at this point before a race of a new distance, I’m freaking out and worrying if I’ll be able to finish, if my training has been enough, and if I have enough time to truly complete my training before race day.\u00a0 But I feel like this time, I’ve done something right.<\/p>\n
Of course, I still will freakout sometime in the week leading up to the race.\u00a0 It’s pretty much a guarantee.\u00a0 It’s how I roll.<\/p>\n
And I do still have plenty of work to do. I need to work on my swimming form so that I can swim faster or at least expend less energy in the water.\u00a0 I’ve got one more open water swim practice to attend.\u00a0 It’s a clinic, but I’m at the point where I need less clinic and more experience in the water.\u00a0 So I’m going just for that experience.<\/p>\n
I need to keep my bike skills up and ride the course as many times as possible (2 more rides on the schedule).\u00a0 I need to run as much as possible to keep my legs used to the motion.\u00a0 And to be ready for the half marathon a few weeks later… I wonder what that course time limit is.\u00a0 Oh well, that’s a problem for Future Megan.<\/p>\n
