445 miles later....and 75 miles of course driving,....here we are!! The hubster and I left at 6:45 this morning, got into Chesapeake Bay about 2:30....checked in the hotel....and were suprised with a free room upgrade-sweet!! I booked a single queen, we got upgraded to a King Suite. Rockin'.
|
Twice the size room....hubster gives it a thumbs up! |
|
"kitchenette" |
After unpacking, we swung by the Hyatt to pick up my race packet and swag.....so far, super impressed. WTC gives you a hat and a shirt....check out Chessyman's haul!
|
backpack, water bottle, gu's, bars, fizz, chip strap, Chessyman gloves, reusable bag, shirt! |
|
Iron bags....no name on the bib, but that's what sharpies are for!! |
After picking uo my swag, we checked out the swim, drove the bike course and run course.....more on that tomorrow :-P While there aren't hills on the course, it's gonna pose it's own challenges....namely certain sea life, humidity, road "issues" and mental challenges. Stay tuned :-D Course logistics tomorrow....
Post driving the course, we headed off to the dinner. The Hyatt sponsored the dinner, and I got the hubster in for a *very* reasonable cost :-P IMLP=pork, salad, white roll, manicotti and brownie. Chessyman:
Pasta (3 kinds, including spinach), marinara/meat or pesto sauce, salad, wheat/white/pumpernickel rolls, fruit, chicken breast, and homemade carrot cake or chocolate torte for dessert!
|
Life's too short to pass up homemade torte....Shared with the hubster :-) |

PHEW!!! Full day! Relaxin' time, then up early for a swim, bag packing, bike check in, athlete meeting..and OFF MY FEET! Night :-)
