Are you kidding me. I have a UTI. Spent Tuesday morning in Urgent Care and at Walmart getting it taken care of. It is harder to get the the start line healthy than I thought. Remember we talked about this a while ago? On antibiotics for a week. None of the nurses seemed to think the antibiotics would have any side effects. At least I won't feel some uncomfortable for the rest of the week.
Rode the two loops of the course on Monday. I love it. There are a couple of pretty steep hills but it wasn't up and down the whole time. There were lots of flatter, settle in, sections. I guess most people aren't used to Battle Ridge or Kelly Canyon or Bozeman pass or Hyalite or all of them in one ride. It is really fun to ride lots of turns, different scenery, and road types. Some of the roads could stand to use some work, bumpy.
This write up is pretty crappy. Don't have a ton to say. Enjoying relaxing and hanging out with my Mom in Wisconsin Dells. Am not yet very nervous about racing. I am excited. The bike course is really fun and the run is going to be great. I get to tour downtown Madison 2x. What better way to sightsee. I guess a race strategy would be a good idea. I was thinking I would need to hold back on the bike but now not sure how much. Who knows what is going to happen on the run. Hopefully my run will be okay without that last couple of weeks. What do you think? Should I expect to be okay, or be a little slower? Should I shoot for a goal time for this race, or just go as fast as I can without looking at a watch? If I could shoot for a goal time it would be 10:30. Faster than IM Canada, but I know this is course is slower so I don't want to set myself up for failure.
Okay, tired. Off to bed. Talk tomorrow.
