The alarm has gone off. Our transition bags are packed, and our run shoes dropped off. It’s just before 4… time for breakfast and the drive to the start. It should be great weather for the day.

My family is heading down to watch, and Holly is already prepared for a wetsuit handoff after the swim. My watch has a 20 minute alarm set, and my wonderful food selection for the day is dispersed over my bike and in a bag to put in my pockets after the swim.

Trifuel jersey is on… guess I should get going! See ya in 140.6…
