IMC minus 11days

All is good in our corner of the world. We've been enjoying slightly cooler temperatures, though the last few days the mercury has been on the rise.

Theresa and I are getting pretty jazzed about the race, and about the mini-vacation that comes with it. We really like Penticton- We just wish it was a little closer. We are looking forward to spending a few days with our gracious and totally cool hosts. They have a little girl (Anja) who is one year older than Donovan, and they got along great the first year they met.

That is about it for right now. Tapering is coming along nicely. Oh, I got bib # 37. It's good motivation.

Also- wanted to report that 17-18 Open Water swims later, my Helix and yellow-tinted Hydras are absolutely awesome. My plan for this race build was to swim hard in the pool up until 4weeks out, then go become one with the neoprene 5-6days/week. So far, so good (and loving it).
