I got in my last few shake-out workouts before my first half-Ironman tomorrow. Including a swim in Grand Traverse Bay. If I lived here I would swim in this lake every single day. I can never understand how this is the same lake as in Milwaukee.
A recreation of my face when I sat down in t2 to change from bike shoes to run shoes, & discovered I had the original timing chip all along.
"Nothing new on race day" includes "don't put stuff where you don't usually put stuff when packing your bag, like in your running shoes "
And my face after beating my super secret "A" goal of 6 hours by just over two minutes, despite fighting leg cramps starting at mile ZERO POINT FIVE on the run. 💪💪😌😴
