It is almost time.

Our trip to Zion and Lake Powell has been wonderful so far. So great that there is lots to share in a separate blog post next week when we return.

Just wanted to reflect on how I am feeling right now as I count down the hours to race day. It is less than 24 hours to go and I am a little sick to my stomach thinking about it. I am trying to stay positive but the nerves are really setting in. I worry about the distance especially on the run. I know my mood today hasn't been cheerful (ok downright bitchy) but it is just the nerves. By this time tomorrow it will be over and hopefully can check Oly distance off my bucket list.

I don't have much else to say but a big thank you to those that have sent me good lucks and have told me they will be thinking of me. Your kind words will get me through it tomorrow and I am lucky to have you in my life!

At 6:00 am tomorrow I will either be buzzing from caffeine or puking my guts out in the Porta Potty.
