Happy FOURTH

So I did a good job of keepingmyself hydrated yesterday.  Made a conscious effort to fill up the water bottle and lug it around with me.  But this morning my up and at 'em isnt kicking in.  It is kind of nice just sitting here with the windows open, a cooler than normal breeze blowing in, coffee in the mug, dogs kicking about.  I decided maybe I would just take a moment and reflect on that before kicking into gear.  The window of road riding opportunity is slowly closing.  Pretty soon - as in 15 minutes - going out on the road will not be an option.  Then it will be all trail options.  Which wouldnt be too bad.  I am wondering if the one trail that is always teaming with people would be busy today given the holiday weekend and all.  That would be a 12 mile ride.  That wouldnt be too bad depending on the crowds.  Or I could do a brick at that other trail...  it just takes effort to stay focused on the back and forth pattern there.
And when it is all said and done - I need to yuck myself out to the Y at noon to swim again.  I need to get more pool time in between now and next Sunday.
NEXT SUNDAY!  what the heck am I thinking???
I should take a ride out to the race site again.  Maybe tomorrow (aahhhh)...  Get my bearings about me.
Pick up my packet next Saturday.  This time I will remember my license.  And somewhere I need to find my bib # give me an idea of my starting time.  There are only 500 people in this race so it shouldnt be as hectic.
One can hope.
