I’ve been trying to think what could totally blow my race next weekend, and how I might divert it.

What if I forget my running shoes? I just now put an old pair of running shoes in my car.

What if I forget my helmet? I put an old helmet in the car, too.

Hmmm….I don’t have an extra bike to pack, but I doubt I’ll forget that.

Trying to think of other things…?

I googled triathlon race disaster and found this great article about pre-race diet.? I know from my own experience that eating poorly (for example, pigging out on pizza and brownies) the day before a major workout makes me feel crappy and not do well.
