The night before a race...

...looks like this.

Nothing-ness.

There's nothing to do.

You can't go out. Ok, you can I used to do that in college. I've learned my lesson.

I was in the bed by 8 PM ready for the 5:15 alarm. There was still light out.

I think about my training rides. I think about how it's been fun. And, the great friends I've made through the sport.

I was asleep by 9.

I woke and answered texts and phone calls.

Went back to sleep.

Moral of the Story: Complete relaxation.
