DIARY OF A KONA BOUND TRIWIFE – THE WEEK BEFORE

We’re getting closer and closer to THE DAY…..Kona bound.  I’ve now heard, “My mind’s in Kona” multiple times to be precise.  The bike has been packed up, delivered, and per Tribike Transport’s message, picked up and on it’s way to heaven.  The shirts and pants have been separated in the closet into “what I’m taking to Hawaii”.

TRIATHLETES HAVE THEIR SAY ABOUT RACE VENUES

Do triwives and triathletes pick race locations for the same reason? What are their favorite race venues and why? Which races are on their wish lists? Well, I recently attended the Ironman 70.3 World Championships in Mont Tremblant and decided to take full advantage of being around all these triwives and triathletes at the same time.
