'Twas the Night Before Ironman...

...and all through the hotel, Ironman participants were stirring, trying so hard to sleep. Tossing and turning and worrying in bed...about swimming and biking and running...all in one day.

I was doing ok until a couple of hours ago then I had a meltdown...it was kind of like one of those beautiful clear days that suddenly produces a heavy rainstorm, which then clears up as if nothing ever happened. Strange how your mind plays games with you.

My coach just called and we talked a bit about the course. I feel better now.

I'm going to sleep and in the morning I will attempt to be a two-time Ironman finisher.

Stay within myself...

Good work Michelle. You are a Rock Star! You provide such great motivation for me. I am glad that I found a new friend in this thing called Ironman. Cannot wait to see you in Austin. Enjoy your time in Seattle!
