Just a short blog post this evening, as I relax ahead of Ironman 70.3 Musselman tomorrow. I am feeling good and the weather looks like it will be good tomorrow.
The water in the lake is still quite cold, so we will almost certainly have a wetsuit swim. The swim course also stays closer to shore this year, so hopefully the water will not be as choppy as last year.
Earlier this afternoon, I drove the new bike course. It looks to be a little flatter this year, and for the most part, the roads are in good condition. We saw crews out there, patching the road in areas where the surface was a little more sketchy.
Nothing left for me to do now except try and get a good nights sleep. We need to leave the accommodation we are at, by 4.00am tomorrow. We have a bit of a drive to get to the race location.
See you all on the other side of the race.
