Packed and ready to go....leave tomorrow 0615

I'm ready for the Portland Triathlon. Packed and ready to go. Leaving tomorrow at 0615, any earlier and we hit morning traffic in Boise. Plan is solid. Training is ok (more consistency would make it great).

Did a short bike last night. 20k in 40.5 minutes very easy. If time was an issue, I'd be happy with it. Stopped to see if a guy walking his bike was good..."Wife's on the way," he said. Gotta love the support team!

Ran easy 5k tonight. Lower calf muscles are acting up again. I'm going to call it a bit of dehydration because they feel like they want to cramp. I put out some extra water bottles for the drive.

My main pre-race goal is to minimize the impact of drive-time and family time on the race. I'll have to have some discipline to eat right and drink enough water (not wine!).

I'm excited about the trip. Weather still looks good for Sunday.
