I can't believe that my triathlon is now less than two weeks away. My mind is now pondering all of the things that could wrong. Yesterday, hubby and I went to the beach to practice open water swimming. I swam right into a small island of seaweed about 50 meters out. Keep in mind that it's really hard to see where you are going when you are swimming in the ocean. I was just swimming along, when suddenly I'm being grabbed by all of these slimy long tentacles. I keep thinking about what would have happened had I noticed two beady eyes staring at me as I struggled to untangle myself (*shudder*). So now I not only have to worry about not drowning, but I need to be on the look out for sea monsters too. So much to think about.
This weekend was spent training and rounding up triathlon gear. I think assembling the proper attire is the best part of any activity =) Hopefully the sea monsters won't get me before anyone has a chance to see it.
{New aero bars and speedometer for my bike}
{Oakley Jawbones for cycling and running}
{Italian tires to give me speed}
{Aqua Sphere tri goggles...so I can spot any sea monsters before they try to eat me}
{Our running shoes are now equipped with Yanks so we will waste no time in T2}
{Tri top from 2XU}
{Tri shorts from 2XU}

Wow, lots of gear! The one thing that always bothered me the most about the race was the open water. I hate the idea of slimy things & fish. Panic would def. take over for me, ha!
This is going to be so fun to follow. I am so interested in how it goes. You can do it! The gear looks great. That is a lot of stuff!
you are going to do great - how can you fail with all that new equipment?
Good luck on your race! Love all your cool equipment!
