The second day we woke up to more rain. The boy at the front desk told us the weather was going to get worse throughout the day. Maura and I decided to set out for a run while Donnie and Bob felt the hot tub was a better way to start the day. Armed with bottles and power bars Maura and I started off on our run. Five minutes into the run the sky cleared and the sun started to peak out. Even Bob and Donnie decided to venture out on the run course after the sun was shining. We ran the course (one loop) plus a little extra....It is a beautiful place to run but on race day I think the run will feel lonely and long!
Next up the SWIM...This is the hardest part of a triathlon for me. The water in Mirror Lake is perfect. Almost too perfect. You can see a lot of things you may not want to see. It also is so deep, what is really down at the bottom of that lake? The water tastes like drinking water and there is a yellow cable five feet down which runs the entire length of the lake. I believe this has to be one of the nicest places to swim. We swam one loop of the swim course and I realized I need to spend more time in the pool!
Donnie drove us home after the swim. This was an awesome training weekend. Thank you Maura, Donnie and Bob.

Who is Bob? If you want to spend more time in the water, then I'm your woman...when do you want to swim?
