140.6 naaaa 176.8

The scale said 176.8 this morning. The last time a scale registered my weight at this level: I had not yet kissed a girl, I was desperately trying to gain weight, I was 2 inches shorter, my zits were a major concern to me, football and females were the two thoughts that dominated my mind and I never not in a million years thought that 18 years later I would be obsessed with getting lighter in order to perform better in an Ironman.

Bad News: I really won't weigh this much on race day. This was my morning post-major bowel movement pre-breakfast weight. My real race weight will be low 180's

Good News: I have still lost a chunk since Kona and I hope it makes a difference.

5 days till blastoff.
