Freaking out - 1 day to go

Its like the quiet before the storm. Im sitting here on my sofa listening to the birds knowing that in less the 24 hours i will have finished (hopefully) the event. Im mean its only a triathlon, I should put things into perspective and all!
Today Im going to go to Casa de Campo and pick up the race stuff and also support fellow colleguers from the gymn who are taking part in the Olympic race, and of course see the wohle mayhem that goes into this whole Triathlon. Im not good with crowds (unless im on stage - im little) so im guessing it will make me more anxious but it should inspire me and start the adrenalin flowing.
hopefully i get a good nights sleep. I havent slept good in a few days.....arghhh
Today im not doing any training.....will just chill.....not sure if its psycholgical but my knees are hurting today! 
oh and weight wise...i hit my 53kg goal..so all this training has been amazing.
deep breaths...deep breaths...

Weight Loss

When I first started training for the triathlon, I wasnt thinking about losing weight specifically, to me it was the challenge of actually doing the event..but now of course the weight is dropping off. Of course this started after begining personal training with David (davidhughes.es). Ive lost 4.5kg so far. Todays weigh-in was 54.2.

I feel energised, I feel lighter and sprightly. I did a dance rehearsal yesterday and the lifts and the jumps are so much easier, and its only a few kgs we´re talking about here. Im sure my male dancers appreciate this!
I wont get obsessed but its quite motivating and a little addictive. Whats important is that I feel my strength grow and that its me thats feels good not the numbers on the scales.
Currently im getting over a cough so missed a swim session but keeping as active as I can. Might have to go cycling in the rain his weekend...ewww.
