Omigosh - Ironman CDA is here and is gonna happen whether I'm ready or not. And I don't think I'm ready. I tweaked my left knee at our Clear Lake training weekend and it's been feeling tight and a little painful ever since. I haven't done more than 4 miles running since then. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a bit more than concerned, well, maybe even scared.

I hear my team mates telling me I'm ready and will do fine and I have a solid base, etc. - but I won't know how I feel until Sunday morning.

The trip up here was great - beautiful scenery, fun with the Booths, a nice night in Bend with a good dinner. The area here is just gorgeous - clear skies, fresh air, lots of trees.

We'll be heading down to the swim start to do a short swim/run then hit registration and the swag tent.

Tomorrow we'll drive the bike course and check out the hills. Temps are in the high 70's low 80's - race day predicted to be in the 90's. But hey - at least there's no rain in the forecast.
