- Race start at 830am.
- Short 1000m swim in strong current between shallow rocks. Will be non-wetsuit.
- Bike is rigged with new Rotor Rings (thanks Benno), new compound LK’s (thanks Garth), insulation taped gels and spares beneath the seat.
- Bike course will be super fast, yet the most technical course on the circuit. Definitely the most fun course.
- Did an interview while riding the course on Thursday: Richmond Times Dispatch.
- Also got to do an interview with Conrad for NBC12, a local tele station, aired as the leading sports story on Thursday’s 6pm news!
- I’ve not run since Wednesday – when I tweaked my left lower back a little. Seems grand now though. Hoping it stays that way over the 10km fast flat run route. Technical rocky section has been cut due to high river levels.
- Scheduled to drive 10hours with Craig immediately after to Nashville.
- Big thanks to Spike and Garret for making a home for us this week.
- Crossroads Coffee Shop makes the bestest best spiced Chai tea smoothie. If the racing is going backwards I’ll be diverting my route via there.
- The fifth race of the Xterra Cup Series for 2009 – and should have a full start list on the top end side. Feeling excited for it – the course and down town atmosphere is unlike anywhere else.
