Just started reading Slow Fat Triathlete today, and I wanted to share a quote I thought was prefect. "People ask me all the time what the order of the events is. The most usual order is swim-bike-run. I haven't seen this in print anywhere, but it certainly makes sense for safety reasons. Better to be in the water when you're freshest and on your own two feet when you're most likely to collapse from exhaustion." Hopefully I won't get to a collapsing point during my race, but I am thinking that the run is going to be my toughest part. My previously strongest sport! Tomorrow I have a swim & lifting scheduled, hopefully I can fit it all in the morning so I can have the night off and maybe read some more of the book.
Watching Wipeout (on ABC, hilarious!) and then off to bed!
