Tomorrow (Saturday) morning, I'll be competing in the Diamond Lake Sprint Tri. It'll be my first since my disappointing experience at IM703 Victoria. Kind of a gut check. I'd appreciate any good thoughts you might have to send my way.

Today I took my first real ride on my new A2 tri bike. What an amazing difference vs the "road bike with tri fit”! Super light, so powerful, so fast. I'm looking forward to my next race -- Diamond Lake Sprint on Sept. 9th -- which leads up to IM 70.3 Arizona on October 22nd.

The second paragraph also suggests Tribike will *break into my bike carrier* to "disable or remove" my AirTag if they "detect" it.

I would stay far, far away from this company. I wonder if IRONMAN actually knows what kind of people they're associating with.

Trying to muster enthusiasm and energy to pack for . It'll be my 5th 70.3, second post-covid, first post-shoulder surgery. I want to be excited but I'm not feeling it.

: converting Fitzgerald's 20-week 70.3 training plan to Google Sheets.
(Yes, the "Beginner" plan, though will be my fifth; after the last year I really feel like I"m starting over again).
