Overcast and slight drizzle. No wind that I can feel at home at the moment. We’ll see what it’s like this afternoon for bike check-in.

Fingers crossed the weather stays like this but you have got to play the cards you’re dealt at the end of the day.

Speaking to my friend before her flight on Friday those were her exact words as well ....

 

Hope you get at good nights rest, and that all goes well in the race

 

 

I certainly will be watching the YouTube feed, as well as following two race numbers on the IM platform (hope the platform works better than 2018... only updates we got then was via the WA group)

 

 

EDIT ... How time flies .... she did 2018.  Sat out 2019 and waz peaking in her training for 2020 when the world stopped ....

No worries Dad, you’ve got through the hardest part (training for the damn thing)

Now it’s just 1 foot in front of the other and enjoy the view along the way, wave, smile and enjoy 👍

Good luck to all
