Subject: RE: kenj's group closed, training hard and having fun!!Hello All, First off all, I want to thank all of you for your encouragement and well wishes. I am flying to Tempe on Wednesday and then I am sure it will be a whirlwind. My number is 766 and can be tracked at http://www.myathletelive.com/ or Ironmanlive.com. The athlete tracker will allow you to see where I am (and if I am moving ) and Ironmanlive will provide my splits.. if it is working. The weather report is suggesting rain but I am keeping my fingers crossed. My goal is to just finish within the time limit and of course enjoy it. People ask me if I am ready. I think I am ready to finish within 17 hours so I guess I am ready I have purchased a neoprene swim cap and booties which I have tested out in the pool. I think they will both be a benefit to me. I do get hot easily but I am more worried about hypothermia as I will be in the water for quite awhile. I really have no idea what I am going to experience out there on Sunday but I am sure it will be something I remember for a very long time. |
