I was glad we got to Augusta Friday and had time to go to packet pickup, race meeting, and expo, then relax and get settled in. There was a purple water fountain outside of the hotel! COOL!
Got up at 4:00 a.m. We dressed quickly in order to catch the first shuttle to T1 to get everything set up. When we got to the lobby, we saw a shuttle van out front and thought it was for us. But the hotel staff directed us to the back of the building. There was an entire FLEET of school buses waiting for us! There was already a line formed for the shuttles but it did not take long. We set up transition and met a teammate, Gee, whom we had never met before. So glad we had on our team jersey's and he spotted us!
Once we finished setting up T1, we headed back to the hotel to relax until our wave starts. The swim start was within walking distance of the hotel (about 1/4 mile). I had coffee and a half of a peanut butter and jelly sandwich; later had 1/2 banana. Relaxed and did some stretching.
No warm up. We did a practice swim in the river yesterday morning and dialed in our bikes yesterday afternoon. Warm up was trying to get into my wetsuit! Whew!
