7 Days to go

or more precisely, about now next week Lisa should be finished.

Starting to get a little nervous now as race start is fast approaching.

Taper is going well, with no tantrums yet. Really just ticking the legs over in each discipline although tomorrow a 80km IM hitout on the bike will be interesting.

Just about all set and will be setting sail for Taupo on Monday morning.

In other news, I fulfilled a fantasy I have had for some time, of riding from Moranbah to Mackay. An early start in beautiful conditions this morning soon turned into a slog when the wind picked up and unfortunately not in the direction I was going.

Got there in the end, but the last hour was really challenging. Longest ride for me in over 2 years, but can now cross that off the list of things to do. All up 195km in 7 hrs 5 mins, with a few stops along the way.
