4 Days & Counting

Holy cow, time is going by so fast! I can't believe we are almost to race day. I forgot to bring the cord to upload photos, so the blog will be boring for awhile. We have been having lots of fun in WA/ID with Jason's family. Jeni and Aaron were here for the weekend and it was good to see them. The weather had been really rainy two days in a row, but the other 2 days were really nice. It is supposed to keep getting warmer....tomorrow reaching 80 degrees. That will be perfect lounging by the lake weather, but I hope that it cools down on Sunday. The water was so incredibly cold yesterday, but miraculously it warmed up significantly today with a bunch of sun. I was not sure I could swim in that cold of water, but it is getting better, so I am very glad.

We have had a few shorter workouts and I am feeling very sluggish and like a tubby tiger. All this being lazy and eating lots of food is probably not the best pre-race idea. Jason is feeling like a different person, he is finally better and back into he swing of things. I hope his belly can stay settled on race day. I am tired. I took naps two days in a row and I never ever take a nap.

Beaker and Brendan are coming from Anchorage to cheer us on this Thursday! They are one amazing couple and we are excited for them to get here. I bet that Beaker will be more nervous than we are on race morning/day. :) It's more difficult trying to watch someone race than it is doing it yourself!

This evening, Jason and I went to visit my Grandpa. He lives about an hour away and it was great to see him, he is the best!

Hope all is well with all of you. Thanks for the good thoughts and well wishes!
