Countdown.......3....2......

This weekend, the rain continued. That meant more than 2 hours on the trainer for the bike. It has been a LONG time since we biked inside, but the Olympics got us through. We saw a USA men's basketball game, the women's badminton singles gold/silver medal game, lots of rowing (singles, doubles, etc.), men's water polo..... yeah, lots of sports! The best was the coverage of Taylor Phinney in the 4 km track cycling, my heart rate and watts were up a bit for those 7+ minutes!

More taper training on Sunday, then we started the packing process.

Yesterday it continued! But shortly after dark, the car was almost finished. Just a few more things tonight (fridge/cooler items) and then we're off for Canada!

We are both excited to race, and excited to be in Penticton and see old frinds and my parents again.
