Two Triathlons this weekend

This weekend we've got two triathlons going on.

For the Millerton Lake Triathlon we will head up and camp at millerton lake on Friday night. A handful of kids are going on this part of the trip to practice setting up the tents and have fun setting up the course. When we do the splash and dash set up in May, we will know what to do already...

Then after volunteering at the race on Saturday we'll load up with a few new people (Meagan, my friend Karl and some more kids) up to Folsom Lake (near Sacramento) to set up camp (we get the same campsite pretty much every time we go... at Beals Point!)

This is our 9th camping trip up with TBF Racing.

I explained to my students in a handout this week the importance of getting sleep these days before the race. And proper nutrition (and I'm practicing what I preach by not having soda this week/no energy drinks too... and for lunch for example today is pasta with grilled chicken. last night was the same with some salad and fresh strawberries thrown in!).

and drinking lots of water. tonight i will get off a quick swim and tomorrow a light run in preparation for sunday. some biking will happen friday or saturday!
