Escape from Alcatraz 2010 ... -9 days

Last 9 days... I will blog every day.

As I said this is a crucial moment.

Today training was great... 1h10 minutes in the morning along the Ontario lake, then biked strong for an hour on the spinning bike plus a 10 mins run right after... for the feeling.

I had to spend 5 minutes to clean the massive amount of sweat I left on the bike.... I guess the people at this hotel will hate me.

My mom sent me a long email, she is worried about the swim portion. I will try to Skype with her over the week end and make sure she understands that there are old people doing this... and that me complaining about my shape means only I want be able to be competitive... MOM I WILL SURVIVE NO PROBLEM!!

Tomorrow I will find a swimming pool and go there with the wetsuit... do not care what people will think but I read that I need at least 3-4 swims with it before it gets easy on your body.

Ontario lake will see me at least once... and on May 1st I will have time for a last test.

I feel this time in Toronto will be the perfect protected pre-race time that every athlete should have.

Alcatraz.... Can't take my eyes off you



p.s. Thx double R... u make me go stronger every day!
