T-11 hours

I'm sitting in my hotel room watching a movie, Gordon is lying by my side listening to music and relaxing. I'm feeling contemplative and pretty calm. I was feeling much more nervous earlier this afternoon and yes I have welled up a few times already. But a phone call to Mum, Dad and Kate got rid of the tears and calmed me down immensely.

Having a blog is great, and having my blackberry is good too! I just re-read my "Journey to the start line ..." blog to remind me, again, why I am doing this and how hard I have worked to get here. It was exactly what I needed to read.

I just stepped outside. The weather is cooling down, twilight is upon us, and in roughly 24 hours I hope to finish my first Ironman!
