IM Florida Pre Race

Gday everyone.

Its Thursday now and two days before the race. The weather has fined
right up , the ocean has calmed and the wind died to 5-10mph, perfect
race conditions.
Saturday is expected to hit 84d which is about 28/29 C so will be a hot
run.

I am all set to go - finished off with a small swim and run this
morning and everything looks well for a solid race. There is stacks of
Germans around so they are always going to give me a run for my money for the
Hawaii slots , so its not going to be a walk in the park. So I reckon
its a case of " game on!"

Chris Dmitrieff is racing and will defintely be pushing the poduim. I
heard a late entrant of Chris Lieto but this being his third ironman in
a few months I think will be a tough ask to win here.

Its all very exciting and I can't wait for that gun on Sat morn. Good
luck to anyone doing Noosa and Nepean and whatever other races are
coming up.

Keep smiling
chris
