Checked In!

My denial cannot continue much longer. In less than 32 hours, I will be in the water for IM Louisville. Bea and I checked in today and picked up our packets. We walked around the Ironman Village (Shameless Commerce section of Ironman), but I refrained from buying anything. Do not want to jinx anything!

At the mandatory athlete's meeting, my nerves started up again... So many rules... so much to remember... eek! Nutrition, hydration, drafting, blocking, illegal passing, littering. Oh, and 2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike and 26.2 run. It seems that I'll be pretty busy Sunday.

Yikes!

Saturday, we packed up and took the bikes for a short spin to the Great Lawn where transition was set up. Not many had checked in when we got t here, so the racks were still pretty empty. The volunteers were absolutely fabulous. One of the gals there, showed us the changing tents, where our drop bags would be and where the bike in/out and run out areas were. I am starting to get excited.
