Pre-race routine:

Woke up at 4 and ate a bagel w/pb and started sipping Gatorade and coffee. The last thing I really wanted was food but I knew what the day was about to bring and forcing myself to eat the bagel was tough.
Event warmup:

Walked to body markings, got marked and went to put special need bags in their bins. Made my way into the transition area and the nerves started kicking in. Found my Mobile friends, got into wetsuit, got Body Glided up and made my way to the beach.
