Countown – 5 days
Five days to go. I have a feeling that this week is going to fly by. I have a fairly busy week at work and home, plus the anxious adrenaline, and it will be Sunday morning before I know it. This morning was a short(er) run with some speed repeats built in. I was a little tired and my legs felt a little heavy, but after I was warmed up, I felt pretty good.
Assaf and I are going to go to the expo on Thursday, I think. I’m excited to check it out and see all the booths and displays. I’m such a geek for these things and I would have to imagine that this one is one of the, if not THE, best in racing.
I went and quickly met with Jon at Jackrabbit last night to talk about the bikes. I’m going to order the all carbon Chrono, which is a really sick bike. He had one at the store last night that someone had ordered and it looks awesome. I need to pick out the colors, but that will be one fun bike to ride. (It had better be!!)
We dressed Charlie up as a crocodile for Halloween and he looks so cute. We’ve been to dog Halloween parties Sunday and last night and there’s another one at his daycare tonight.
