Once again the Ironmaori Triathlon series is in full swing. The Quarter is where I join the party. So this morning up at 5:30am time to get everything together, I could never do this the day before, I end up doubting my preparations.
Car loaded time to go and get those essentials all cyclist need. Pop Crisps Candy sandwich fillings bread biscuits shampoo conditioner body wash.
Heading north 298km to our destination, Napier (on the East Coast of NZ). It started of wet miserable and cold, my kind of race conditions.
Unfortunately the further north we travelled, the hotter it got. I really don't like the heat, it was time to stop (Woodville) and have an early lunch before I melted into a blob.
After a quick visit at our motel in Napier, we headed to the race registration area. Signed in, picked up my race kit then back to the motel to relax ready for tomorrow's race.
I'll try to post the event tomorrow but most likely would have to wait for when I get back home.
