Shall we review your training schedule?

Ace Triathlete Coach offered to review my training this morning. I said sure,but probably not a few days before I race... I mean, how am I supposed to feel if she trashes it? Luckily, she agreed.

I ran yesterday - not long - but I met a friend, who talked me into staying with her for a bit. She turned onto the dreaded hill road; basically a half mile of straight up. There was no way I was walking with this person... In fact, I think she altered her run to include this hill just for me... I just had a feeling... She even knew about this weekend's race. Evil woman!! My butt was aching today as I got up to spin. I decided I better start tapering... and made it a moderate workout - well below threshold.

Tomorrow I have obligations at my daughter's school, gymnastics and a trip to visit my grandmother (who inches closer to death every day). Thursday I will spin; Friday I will swim; Saturday I may get into the lake to try and get better acclimated to the cold and the ick factor. Sunday is it!!!!! Man, I can not wait! I am anxious. My sister did call me today with the run down. It's a small race 132 people (yeah, too many hills), there are 4 athenas registered and 2 people in the 70 and over category. I am hoping that means I could place, but more importantly, I won't come in last!!
