Team Challenge goes to San Diego!

6am drive to Anaheim Amtrak - SO BEAUTIFUL! :)

Getting ready to do the bike & run course

We had an early Saturday morning start to the day. Jan and I woke up at 5am (after going to sleep past 12am! gah!), got ready, got our booties into our car and made our way to Anaheim. We got there and our bikes were boarded onto a U-haul. We made our way into the train station and were greeted by our lovely teammates. We boarded, and had a nice 2 hour ride! We got to know each other some more, had good conversations, told some funny stories, by the time we knew it, we were in San Diego! We wasted no time and made our way to the Hilton hotel where we will be staying the night before race day. It was a LONG walk haha. It was HOT! Many of us were moaning and groaning. 

Once we got the Hilton, we went through some logistical stuff on how it's going to work on the night before the race, race morning, etc. We checked out where we will be swimming (Check out photo!) Next feat - 12 mile bike ride, followed by 3 mile run. 

Where we will be swimming 500m!

HOLY MOLY was it a hot day! Luckily, our race will take place at 7am so it won't be too hot. Overall, we pushed through and finished strong I think :) We got a little taste of what race day will be like.

Wooo - 3 weeks left!
