Pre-race routine:

I ate the same thing I eat every single morning - berries and yogurt. I arrived at the race at 6:15am which allowed for plenty of time to get numbered, get my time chip and set up. While headed out of transition I ran into one of my best friends from elementary school! I spent the rest of the pre-race time catching up with her which was awesome not only because I got to see her but I didn't think about the race once until we started.
Event warmup:

I didn't do an official warm-up but treading water for a couple minutes was perfect.
