Plan for the WHOLE Race

Planning for an IM event is a daunting task. There are so many details to remember, items and equipment you need, things that will be forgotten if left unattended. For the past week my mind has been racing about what needs to be done when and where and a million other details....then I found Endurance Nation and Coach Patrick & Rich. I purchased their DVD, "Four Keys to Long Distance Triathlon" several weeks ago but had not any time to look at it until this past Saturday. Once started I was hooked on their ideas and process for organizing the race week and race day. I immediately began to write my own plan which turns out to be about 4 pages long starting on Tuesday before the race on Sunday. After training for 8 months, I don't want to leave any thing to chance at this time or as they say in the DVD, "look in the mirror and tell the person you see that you aren't going to mess me up on race day". After two day, I finally have my plan for week which I will post on the blog soon. I am glad that is behind me so now I can try to relax and focus on the task at hand...lets keep moving forward.
