Got a good night sleep last night and woke up early, on my own. Met Mark, Roy, Linda, Joanna and Kate for our brick (15/30/15). For the swim, the water felt really good but it felt like a long time in between buoys. However, after I got started and warmed up, it seemed to go quickly. Still hard to believe that I am going to do 2.4 miles tomorrow plus a bike and run! After the swim, jumped on the bike and discovered my cadence was not working and turned out I was adjusting the wrong sensor. After the bike, went onto the run and ran with Roy. I felt very good on my feet and running with Roy was very helpful. To say the least I was felt very different about this race in completely unsure on how I was going to do. Roy helped me relax and no doubt I was very appreciative.
Once the swim was over, we dropped off our T1/T2 bags and racked the bikes. Then I went back to the room and just hung out and then left to get Carol and Thomas. So excited to see my family arrive safely!!! From there, we went to the Team Z dinner and took some group pictures. Definitely a different feel with the Team from 2-years ago. At CDA, the team felt more intimate and close, this time around, there were so many people I didn’t even know half of the athletes. Was the feel different because I wasn’t around as much for the group workouts or because things have changed? Not sure but I was glad to be there and had a good meal. It also helped me a lot that Carol and Thomas were there as well.
