SO I guess all that can really be said is Johnson's Beach will be open from 10-6.  It is a private beach so you very well may not be able to get on to the property before 10. 

Or perhaps you just can't get all crazy with a canoe until then.  I really don't know..........

A reminder about the pre-race dinner at 5pm on Saturday. PM me if you are considering coming (no commitement, I'm just trying to get a feel for how many people might be showing up)

Pizzio's @ 5pm

Santa Rosa, CA 95401

You can also reply to this thread, to let everyone know if you are thinking about coming. I know of at least 2 people who said that they will probably show up.

Hmmm, so I guess we won't be swimming at 8 on Saturday.  Bummer.

If you want to get in a swim after 8 I am down for it.  Need something to do to kill time before the expo begins and since I can't....or shouldn't drink the wine in the valley before the race....I need to be preoccupied.

Water temp is down to 77 as of yesterday. Hrrrrmmmmmmmm.


Still way too hot


I didn't realize they can release damn water. They will likely do that the day before the race to try and lower the temp. The RD wants a wet suit swim, they all do. If it's wetsuit legal, you better wear one or risk being dropped like a bad habit!

Don't worry, even WITH a wetsuit on, you'll all drop me in the first 30 seconds of the swim I am THAT slow LOL

OMG my little brothers and sisters are on a swim team and they all laugh at my swim times too. The little old ladies at my pool all kick my arse. It's a good lesson in humility, I tell you!

Heh!... You'll be in the front of the race, and I'll be in the back... Zoot will get LOTS of exposure.

Have a great trip up here, Lori! The weather has been great and the air even pretty clear and clean.

We head up to our Healdsburg rental cottage tomorrow - looking forward to it!

Heya Brian!

Yeeeehah. Nope, I don't miss a party. And really. I couldn't possibly let Dolores fend for herself up there in the Great Wild North ... I mean, you know how laid back and civilized it is here in So Cal

Safe travels, Lori, and mixie, I sure hope you at least sit and relax with us at dinner to hang out and let the collective good luck vibes swirl around you .

Hi kids!  Just peeking in to see what's going on....I am so excited to go.  I just finished reminding my boss that I won't be here - people do not get this triathlon thing. He just looks at me like I am completely nuts and wished me luck.  Its funny.  I am trying to keep the heart attacks to a minimum today.. Glad I'll be seeing you all there and even more glad that Yanti is not letting me fend for myself.

That reminds me that I need to remind my boss AGAIN that I'm calling in for my Monday meetings rather than attending in person. I have a massage scheduled and I'm not going to miss it!

Last little workout in this morning with no injuries (main goal today, frankly)...we leave tomorrow morning around 7:00-7:30am.

Too much packing/shopping to do tonight...freaked out that I've decided to take the front wheel off my new bike for the first time and stow it in the back of the Pontiac Vibe for the trip rather than use the rack. Freaked that I can't decide betw. tri top in the water (drag?) or no top (no drag) and add jersey in T1 (which I've done before when I didn't own a tri top) if swim is not wetsuit legal. Freaked that I haven't taped my clip-on aerobars and can't decide whether to try to do that tonight or blow it off (I've done all my training with no tape). Freaked that I just realized that I don't know if we confirmed the cat sitter or not.

Not, however, freaked by the race. Feel good and prepared and hope y'all feel the same. Look forward to meeting you guys and wish everyone safe travels!
