The Week before The World Champs.

WOW,it is really the week before the week before the Ironman World Champs. I am here lying on my bed in the cool temperature of my bedroom, with the air conditioner working full time. I feel here in Hawaii, it is good to experience the Heat and Humidity during training, but then when you are resting it is best to be in the cool air conditioning, of your apartment.

I am staying this year, a little bit out of kona. I like to stay here in Keauhou Bay, it is about 5 miles south of kona, at the end of the famous ALII DRIVE. The hype of the Ironman is not so full on here, it is nice to chill on your porch, listen to the birds, watch the golfers driving the ball. It is super relaxing.

Yesterday I had a great massage with my long time friend and supporter Pua. She is just awesome. Pua is from Oahu, but has lived here on the Big Island for about 8 years. So she certainly knows how the Island works. It is a very spiritual Island, just by the amount of power you feel once stepping of the plane. Or maybe it is just the amount of LAVA ROCK spread all over the place, that makes you feel all weird.....

Well I must away, my tummy is rumbling, it is off to make something to eat.....oatmeal, the yummiest and tastiest lunch
ever....

bye for now, catch up again in a few more days....
hugs
