The clock is ticking...

The countdown to the ironman says 18 days 16 hours and 25 minutes!!!!! This is so real it is scary!!!! The good thing is...I know everyone else doing the IM for the first time is feeling the same way....

So many questions...
How much should I taper..
Will I be ready...
Should I have done more..
What time do I need to line up for the swim...
Will I have enough fluid on the bike...
How will I feel after swimming and biking...then trying to run a marathon for the first time!!!

So many variables that are out of our control...
Will it be miserably hot..
Will it rain..
Or worse...constant wind...
Will I get a flat (I sure hope not)
Will anything else break on my bike..
Will they run out of water at the aid stations...

One thing I do know...with all the questions and variables...this day will be one that I will always remember...and I will cherish...bc I get to do something most ppl don't even dream of...and I get to do it with my best friend! My sister!
