Race theme: ironplanner suggests you create a theme for the day which makes it sound enjoyable rather than scary! So..
The swim is like a Swimtrek holiday adventure, exploring new Mediterranean islands. The bike is a climb to the best views and a fun and relaxing descent towards beautiful villages. The run is alongside my loved ones to bask in the crowd's support. At the end is a beginning to a new adventure.
My magic: (for energy boosts)
- lungs that can breathe easily and calmy
- Cool breeze that takes the heat away
- Laughter that erases pain
- Lightness so my legs feel nothing.
