About 48 hours from now, I will be nearing the finish on the run for my next event, the Chisago Lakes Triathlon, long course.

Nerves are kicking up a bit, and I keep telling myself, I've made it through each portion in my training. Compartmentalize each portion that way, and I will be able to do it. Keep my own pace on the swim, push it on the bike, and push through the pain on the run. Jeebus, I'm realizing how insane I am.
