All the Hype, Now Just Finish

17 hours until the cannon goes off. We just dropped off my magic bike in transition zone. Gear bags checked in as well. I stopped by to talk to our friend Eddie from IOS. Time to go back to the cabin, get a short swim in for confidence/relaxation purposes, then rest, eat and discuss logistics with family for the day Sunday. The weather forecast is 75 degrees high with variable clouds and 15-20mph winds, and 55 degrees as we enter the water at 7AM CST. The triathlon Gods appear to be finally smiling upon Ironman Wisconsin.

I leave you with three photos taken today. One for my training partners (go Team Finley aka Team Rosemary!), one for the weatherman (taken at 6:45AM today), and one to prove that I'm so anxious I need a photo to memorize where my gear bag will be (right in front of this sign). Next post coming Monday. I hope to send good news.
