these are just a few of the people who've been affected by some type of cancer. The list goes on and on and on. I will be thinking of all of them when the going gets tough. They indure so much more every single day that they are sick.

Packing has begun. I pretty much have all my tri gear ready to go just need to put it into my tri bag. I still need to figure out my other attire for the weekend. It's suppose to be hot but it's still getting pretty chilly at night. The camping gear is pretty square away, thanks to my OCD about being so darn neat. Just need to refill a few bins, yes my camping gear is all neatly stored in plastic bins :o) hee, hee. I need to hit the grocery store for some water, gatorade and breafast stuff. I am hoping to be done with packing no later than 1pm so that I can rest for the rest of the afternoon. I need to drop Patch off (very very sad) at his sitters later in the evening and then back home to be in bed by 9:30 or so. Gotta get up at 4am :o( urrgghh so we can be on the road by 5am.

Last night I did get a swim in at our last coached swim workout. It was a fairly easy workout.

75x8 Kick, Drill, Swim (warmup)
then we did a ladder - 50, 100, 150, 200...200, 150, 100, 50
100 (cool down)
=1700

HAPPY DAY to everyone! I'll try to post some pics later.
