My plan called for a small brick workout in Galena for the race the following day... By the time we got up there and racked my bike, I was in no mood to start riding and running around, let alone swimming!
We met my college friend and amazing triathlete Erin Finnegan for lunch in Westmont since I worked in Downers Grove that morning. She always has tempered and good advice and it was fun to see her! Erin qualified for and competed in Kona Ironman in 2009 and this year she is pregnant with her first kid. She still looks amazing!
When I went to check in, I saw that I had accidentally signed up for the triathlon rather than the duathlon. What an idiot! Thankfully, they were super relaxed about it and just let me switch. It was a good thing since I didn't have a wet suit, goggles or even a swim suit with me to do a triathlon.
On our way to the rental house, we passed Mary with a flat tire; just outside the transition. We waited with her for AAA and then flagged down a security guard to help us change it. It was quite the ordeal since it was a huge van and we had a lot of trouble getting the spare to drop. Thankfully it all worked out in the end. By the time we got back to the house, though, it was late and we grilled and had a quick dinner before hitting the hay.
