We arrived safe and sound on Wednesday afternoon, we made the trip in 12 hours and had no problems with floods, detours or traffic this year! We got settled in at the Hyatt and took a walk on 4th street to get a bit to eat. It’s still pretty quiet and you can tell that Ironman hasn’t hit town yet!
On Thursday morning there were athletes and bikes everywhere. We registered on Thursday morning and did a short ride on the out and back section of the bike course. The weather is hot and sunny, but not nearly as humid as it was last year.
Part of the registration process was a body analysis. My weight is 147lbs, body fat 5%, I am 61.2% water and I have 133 pounds of muscle. My visceral fat rating is 4, my bone mass is 7 and my metabolic age if 12. It will be interesting to compare these to next years stats.
Sue and Ted arrived on Thursday afternoon and we met them at a buffet restaurant in Indiana called the Golden Corral. Friday morning is the first practice swim, so we’ll be out in the river for the first swim we’ve had in a few days. Today is the day to get everything organized for the race, the transition bags, race gear, clothing etc etc etc!!! Tonight is the welcome dinner and tomorrow the bike check in. It’s getting closer!!
