Nervous

According to the information at the bottom right corner of this here screen, my first triathlon is in 11 days.  I've been a little on edge the last few days for many reasons [many indeed], but this morning it came to me: I'm nervous about the triathlon! I've been working my ass off for almost a year now, working my way up to it.  [for the record I have about 2 months' worth of spinning and all my early swims that aren't shown, as well as the mileage being all screwed-up since my app stopped recording spinning miles. Don't get me wrong, I really like Runtastic, they just changed the interface]

I've swam many times before sunrise, after sunset and everything in between.  I even swan in the lake to make sure that my phobias [and there are a couple at play here] are in check.  I've biked when I could, went to spinning class the rest of the time.  I've run in the dark, in the cold, in the rain and also in perfect weather [like today]. I've done quite a few bike-runs, hell I even did all 3 [at the distance of my first event] just to  make sure.  I've been mindful [to say the least] about my diet, made sure to eat the right kind of foods to fuel my effort.  I've even dabbled with making my own food for the race [not for this event but for the next one in July, the longest one where I will need to eat on the bike or else] with great success. I'm pretty sure I'm ready.  I'm finishing up the hard training Saturday [after 14 days in a row] and then next week I'll take it easy.  Maybe a few swims in the lake to get that out-of-breath feeling due to the wetsuit to subside, possibly a light run and a don't-listen-to-the-instructor-and-just-ride spin class.  I'm not done training after the first race, I'm just ready.  I'M READY! I'll be sure to update for my first post-race, quite possibly the first one ever.
Until next time,
Oliver P.
