3 days to go

3 days to go
The forecast for Sunday now is up to a high of 92 with a 10% chance of rain. Basically it’s going to be hot and dry as all get out. One of the TV stations is calling for a high close to 100, but I stick with Weather.com
I got my wetsuit today. I have the S&S tonight to try it out. I’m not going to do the run afterwards, just the swim and then cheer everyone home.
Today is when I’ve really started to get nervous. I’ve had people from the BTC (http://www.teambtc.org) wishing me luck as well as triscoopers (http://www.triscoop.com) and it’s really starting to hit home that this is a big deal. I’ve been so close to it for so many months I’ve kind of lost a sense of perspective on the whole thing and it’s like suddenly I’m stepping back and looking at the enormity of it and finding that it’s kind of imposing.Why do I always make my first steps such big ones?
