Subject: RE: 5.28.16 Super-Dee-Duper Saturday! Hope you have a safe trip. Wow--that is a long way to go. I was thinking 120 miles round trip and thinking, "Oh, it's just an hour or so," then realized that's one way. Yikes! Cannot imagine driving to Portland from Eugene every time we needed a big box store.
1:12 of running here with a little (slow ) tempo stuff; 3000m of swimming a few hours after that. Lots of errands, too, so kind of a tiring day.
I did book a ticket to Australia....Keep having the horrible thought that I'm spending all this $$ (for those who don't know, if you KQ or qualify for other Worlds as an age-grouper, you DON'T get a free trip! Very far from it as the hotels jack up their prices and impose minimum stays, plus of course you are, by definition, traveling with a bike. ) to maybe end up DFL in my age group. At least I get to see Australia. (Never been. ) Maybe there will be a kangaroo on the course or something. (Just so I don't hit it with my bike....I visualize them hanging around yards and strolling casually into traffic like deer do in the Pacific Northwest. There are a few courses where they can be a serious safety hazard on the bike. )
