Jitters

I'm starting to get nervous about the triathlon on Saturday! I took my bike out for a 15 mile ride Tuesday. It went really well. I rode out by my parents' where I knew there wouldn't be much traffic and where I was familiar with cycling the roads. I feel a lot more confident on my tri bike now. I realized, too, how FAST that bike is. But it really works my quads more than my other bike. Three days later I'm still feeling it. I'm not sore, but my quads feel really tired. I don't think they had recovered from my long run last weekend. I went for a short run Wednesday and my legs felt like lead. Good practice for the tri, I guess. I'm going to spend some time tonight getting my gear together and planning my transition strategy.
